Shmyr played quite a few years in the WHA and was well into his 30s by the time he went back to the NHL. The WHA became a real fighting league from 74-75 on. I'd be willing to bet a dollar that the fight per game average was a good bit higher than the NHL's during those years. I don't think anybody went undefeated.
