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
Hey bro, welcome...good top 10 although I would have Rob Ray way down the list somewhere in the 30-40 range due to his tremendously poor start to his career but to each his own. I do have to bust on you about the Hextall mention..if you are going to mention him then Felix Potvin deserves mention as well.

So did your number one guy...quite a bit. Also, Mick Vukota's body slam could also be considered "cheating" if you really wanted to debate things as well as Stan Jonathan. Cochrane, Ray, Vial and a host of others also shedded their jerseys quite a bit in their fights and before the tie down rule many guys lost their jerseys in fights. Bob Probert was/is the best enforcer ever and while that can be debated with guys like Wilson and Brown then that's fine. But to say he wasn't a good fighter is just plain silly and does not help your credibility at all.

I think that was a sucker punch by Sammy, during the Jonathan- D.Jackson fight in BOS....O'Reilly wasn't even looking...unfair win and perhaps a bit cowardly...Sammy was known to do that on ocassion.

Outside of McCarty, I actually think the list is pretty good; I mean he's an obvious Red Wing fan, but what the hell?
