Not much footage on Hull. One can only gather that he was like an early version of
Wayne Gretzky with the attendant muscle behind him. For example he had guys like Magnusson,
Dan Maloney,
Jerry Korab, Nesterenko watching his back. However, when I look at his limited engagements he seems to have had beefs with the then resident NHL tough guys: Flemming, Shack, Ferguson,
Ted Green , Harper, Horton, etc… The limited footage I have seen of Hull he seems like a
Darryl Sittler type he looks like he can handle his affairs. The going consensus, from what I can gather anecdotally, is that Hull was a bit of a “loon” once he lost it and could be quite a force. Any thoughts?
