Rizzo Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 happened to see that on the news. Another one of the guys who played hard and partied hard dying young (see Kordic: John). Sad to see, was one of the toughest guys to ever play and had some skill too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmeh Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Sad news, seems he may have gotten things on the right track after some tough times. Unlike most of the clowns in the nhl these days he was actually a tough guy who had some hockey talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hud Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 sad indeed. He fit a lot of living in his years. one of the toughest players to wear skates. Got to see him drop the puck in Chicago. smiles from ear to ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunkerbasshunter Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 was at the last game at Maple leaf gardens. Was thinking at the time if it wasnt a leaf to get the last goal I hope it was Probert. One of the toughest guys in the game ever, who also had a bit of a scoring touch!
