Williams I love cause he didn't always win the fight BUT at least he never backed down from anybody.panoo2004 said:The one, the only, Dave "Tiger" Williams!!!!:thumbsup:
The Tiger was a great entertainer and a fair fighter.Had stones of steel and could play the game as well.Gay Bettman would ban him now as well as borderline sociopaths like Steve Durbano and Randy Holt,guys whom I thoroughly enjoyed.I have a Tiger Williams tape.Always stirrin' the post.Hamilton Tiger said:I've been watching Hockey since the 1970s so some of the names I mention here might not register with some of the young ones in here but on my Top 13 list (Not in order):

Kurt Walker defeated Stan Jonathon in my view,a good thing.
Feel Robinson,while a truly great d-man,was over-rated as a fighter.I have his Schultz fight on tape and don't call it the 'savage beating' that some maintain.He WAS a deterrent to people pushing the more skill oriented Habs around,tho.I was always hoping to see him tune up Jonathon.
Liked Al Secord but after his first couple years he became a wrestler.
Nystrom had a chin of granite but I have Glen Cochrane,underrated by some, beating him.Cochrane loses points in some peoples eyes due to his bad loss as a Black Hawk to Probert as well as a loss to Yvon Vautour.
Good list tho Hamilton,not takin' shots at it.:thumbsup:
Wow.He beat up a girl.Hamilton Tiger said:Robinson I think is under-rated as a fighter because he didn't do it often but when he did look out! I love the beating he handed Mike Milbury of the Bruins one time....that one will always stick out in my mind.
I'm a fan of the way NHL Hockey was played back in the 1960s and 70s yes...gotta check out that site.jgdeadrabbit said:Wow.He beat up a girl.Just funnin'. Milbury was a joke tho.The look of fear on his face when confronted by Mel Bridgman was priceless.
I would suggest hockeyfights.com as you are obviously a fan of REAL hockey,not Bettmanized Disney on Ice figure skating Euro-hockey.
