Best fighter in the NHL currently?

[57special]

Stewart is tough. Reaves is tough. Price is an animal.

 

[Sheppy]

Reeves is up there, but Dalton Prout should get some consideration.

Seriously - the guy made Lucic taste his nut sack not that long ago.

He punched a guy who wasn't defending. You give someone a free shot like that you're getting dropped 9/10 times. Lucic throttled him in the fight after that.

 

[Horse McHindu]

Didn't Darnell Nurse destroy Lucic last year?

Nurse deserves a nominee as well.

The guy is also probably hung like a horse.

Other way around. Lucic toyed with him.

Ah, gotchya.

My judgement might be impaired as I'm on my 8th beer.

I'm also a Nucks fan and so I'm naturally biased against Lucic.

This never happened, not sure what fight you saw.

The easy answer would be Anthony Peluso if he was rotting in the AHL. I'd rather have him than Thorburn in every aspect, especially fighting. Dudes got cannons for fists and he knows how to throw em. Those body shots look painful.

 

[57special]

Cousin of Mike Peluso, I think.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Reaves and Gudbranson.

 

[Allie Kitsune]

It's Chara, his reach and size provides a huge advantage in the context of a hockey fight.

All I can think of is him murdering the living **** out of Mattias Timander in 2004.

I wouldn't want to fight this guy

Chara is like the boxing heavyweight champion of NHL, reminds me of Vladimir Klitschko.

 

[Sheppy]

Chara isn't a good fighter. This is coming from a Bruins fan...

If he played this year I would absolutely have him in my top 2-3. Guy throws some bombs, and throws quick too.

Not too often you get a hip to the head

 

[Lennu32]

Jared Spurgeon. He's such bezerk no one has guts to go against him

 

[elmaco]

Not too often you get a hip to the head

He is a BEAST

Didn't Darnell Nurse destroy Lucic last year?

Nurse deserves a nominee as well. When Nurse gets more uperbody strength he's gonna be hard to handle.

The guy is also probably hung like a horse.

Lucic toyed with him but someday Nurse gonna be the best.

 

[Machinehead]

Don't know if he's the best but Kevin Klein is ****ing terrifying.

 

[Martinez]

Wayne Simmonds is good for a 185er

 

[BlueDream]

Gazdic and Reaves are easily the two best, not close.

 

[Sheppy]

Not the best, but very underrated: Nick Foligno

 

[snipes]

Gazdic is the toughest.

Of NHL regulars? Reaves, Lucic, and McQuaid all in the convo. Chara obviously goes without saying.

 

[underdog]

Still think Lucic is one of the best even though most refrain from fighting him nowdays. How many teenagers enter the league and destroy older heavyweights.
