In the first couple years of the WHA, Gord Gallant was the consensus choice as best fighter/toughest guy. Gallant wasn't a real big guy though and that obviously changed as teams started loading up on bigger tough guys 74-75ish. Fotiu and Carlson were part of that but by no means the only two. I don't think too many guys could have handled
Bryan Maxwell.
