I'd have to disagree on Probert. I've run into both off ice, and grew up watching Ferguson. Strong man for his time, with big fists. Excellent fighter...one of the best. Probert was much bigger, and was a fighting prodigy. Ferguson was mean on ice, but sane off of it. Probert was not. I'll take the bigger, crazy guy with nothing to lose. Probert is the best I've seen over a long stretch.John Ferguson, no question.
Runner up for the Calder, twice an All Star, 5 Stanley Cups and at least 100 minutes of penalties each season he played. The guy was a force on the ice like no other. Although he was only 190lbs, he could score, make plays, fight and opposing players ( and many team mates) were terrified of him. Jean Beliveau called Ferguson "the most formidable player of the decade and possibly in the Canadiens' history"
No one else comes close except perhaps Nilan and Probert. They weren't Ferguson however.
Your last paragraph is one of the most mind boggling comments I've ever read. It's completely false as well.John Ferguson, no question.

I remember watching this game. Hull scored a hattrick on Osgood and the Blues start "gooning" it up at the end of the game. Robitaille of all people threw a huge elbow at Doug Weight. Can't quite read Kocur's lips though.
There should be a Goon advanced statistic. Something like:
PIM / Minutes Played
Points
Screw that. Someone who behaves like that isn't a real fighter. He's a loon. Imagine being the person in the car who he beat up for no real reason. Plenty of respectable fighters would know when to turn it off. If that's true about Gaetz, he's a disgrace and a loser.He was an absolute madman. Wish he lasted longer in the big show.

Travis Moen
He pretty much lived off of his 2006-07 season where in the playoffs he had 12 points in 21 games and 21 points in the regular season as part of the best shutdown line in the league that year.Travis Moen had the worst hands I have ever seen. He made Boogard look like a magician with the puck. He was cringe-worthy.
Any list w/o Nicky isn’t a credible list
(Fotiu)
When I think of Moen I think of Ducks Cup 07… weird.He pretty much lived off of his 2006-07 season where in the playoffs he had 12 points in 21 games and 21 points in the regular season as part of the best shutdown line in the league that year.
He made life hard on guys like Zetterberg, Sedins, Heatley, Spezza, Aflredsson.
The Moen/Pahlsson/RobNiedermayer line was like this years Danault line that shutdown Vegas except that those 3 produced offensively in the playoffs while Danault had only like 4 points.
Weirdly the guy in charge of NHL safety.
