Great Player, feared Fighter

[CUDangled]

I heard about this yesterday...sad story. Watched a bunch of his videos on Youtube last night. I remember growing up watching Probert and Kocur (The Bruise Brothers) putting fear into any opponent the wings faced.

Probert wasn't a "goon" by todays standards. He could put the puck in the net and skated fairly regular shifts. He wasn't "just a fighter", but when it came time to drop the mitts...look out!
