1) Bob Probert (remember Nazarov ))
2) Marty McSorley (But I cant forget, when he slap Brash by stick... He was really bad boy, all time.)
3) Tie Domi (Biggie Littles He was genius of featherweight fighting. But his main skill - that he didn`t scared by big guys! He can kick everyone! McKenna, Nazarov, Probert...)
4) Craig Berube (Indian )
5) Rob Ray (I don`t understand, why you all forgot him ?! Anyway he one of the best!)
6) Krzyzstof Oliwa ("The Poland Hammer")
7) Matthew Barnaby (Barby )
8) Lyle Odelein (Many years ago he can fight, and fight very good)
9) Andrei Nazarov (The first Russian enforcer... By the way, nowadays he trainer of our "Traktor" Chelyabinsk, and I think the coolest trainer for Traktor...)
10) Dave Karpa (IMHO)

Some of these players don't belong. Ray might but not that high.

Assume these are in order from Probert at #1 to Domi/Twist at #10?

Working on tallying up all 200+ ballots . . . keep 'em coming . . .

Blah, blah, blah Bob Probert. I never thought he was a good fighter in the first place. He took too much of an advantage with his jersey coming off. That was always sick. Everybody knows you have a huge advantage when your jersey comes off. I never respected that. He knew it too. Whats that word? A cheater?

Wow Basil, and Troy Crowder ranked Top 10 all time - no Probert, Wilson, Grimson, Marty, Simon ..... First time I think I saw Vukota ranked. I know a guys list is their own opinion and all so fine whatever you say. But as far as Probie's jersey goes I think way too much is made out of it. It hindered him as much as helped him and in many of the cases I saw it did not really make too much of a difference to the outcome to the fight itself.

Don't forget the legendary Basil McRae...did he even have a winning record? Not the fights I have on him. I am thinking of putting Wayne Van Dorp in my top 10 and taking out Probert .

Okay guys its taken me a while but here is my top 10 based on all of the footage I have seen. (followed by the rest in my top 30). Cats like Brashear and Laraques could move up once their careers have been completed but for now I think they are in an appropriate spot. There are still a few guys that I am not sure where to put but I tried to get most of them in where I felt they belonged in an all time sense. Willi Plett or Bob McGill could crack the later part of my list still, same with Darren Langdon, Gord Donnelly etc.

1. Bob Probert
2. Behn Wilson
3. Dave Brown
4. Larry Playfair
5. Clark Gillies
6. Marty McSorley
7. Tie Domi
8. Bob Nystrom
9. Stan Jonathan
10. Joey Kocur


The Rest of the Top 30:

11. Wendel Clark
12. Jim McKenzie
13. John Kordic
14. Georges Laraque
15. Donald Brashear
16. Chris Simon
17. Tony Twist, Sandy McCarthy
18. Glen Cochrane
19. Craig Berube
20. Tim Hunter
21. Dave Semenko
22. Ken Baumgartner, Terry O’Reilly
23. Chris Nilan, Gino Odjick
24. Jay Miller
25. Stu Grimson
26. John Wensink
27. Curt Fraser
28. Dave Schultz
29. Rob Ray
30. Darrin Kimble

Ron Hextall

Clearly I give guys points for being nuts, and for punching power. Simon and Kordic get points on both. In my mid 20's, i grew up watching Simon shatter people
