Didn't Ott lick a visor?

And @PASabreFan you can post eyerolls all you want, but you know I'm right.  That's why you only post eyerolls.  The Panthers get away with stuff like the Bruins used to.

Yes, Ott did

Yes, he lick the visor of Jeff Halpern, a former teammate of his.  Ott was another of the gritty ones.

Well we had Barnaby, he was just as crazy as Marchand. 

Did he ever lick an opponent's face?

What are you talking about?  He was never charged.  The Civil Suit was full of holes and the parents lawyer was a crook.  I'm not even sure if the Civil Suit ever went anywhere.  Not to mention this was something like 40 years ago.

Sure sure, and Carter Hart's an angel and it's just a coincidence he's teammates now with Brett Howden. They're all innocent. There never was a rape culture in hockey and never will be. Gotcha.

So he has a thing for underage girls? Hmmmmmmmmm. (People forget that about "Dougie")

Right. That's exactly what I meant in making the comparison.

Brian "Spinner" Spencer had a tragic life and a tragic early death.   

He was a hard working, two-way forward, and a grinder.   He could really get the crowd going with his reckless style, he literally "spun" around out there on just about every shift, like a battling top.   

Yes, tragic ending but kind of crazy. He wasn't just a battling top, he was dirty. He caused havoc. Him and Dudley together was an awesome line. Wasn't as much of a rat as Marchand but he had his share of altercations that he initiated.

Of course I know what you meant, but I'm not ever going to praise Dougie Gilmour. I knew people who worked at Maple Leaf Gardens that said they were still covering for him in Toronto well past the St. Louis incident. Dude was scum.

I get that Gilmore was a scumbag but he was also a great player. I wasn't praising Gilmore, I was praising Benson.

Barnaby, no.   He did a lot of other stuff, instigated many fights, lots of donnybrooks happened because of Mathew Barnaby.

Sometimes winning teams and HoF players get grace from the officials.  

Hmmm. Maybe that's why the Sabres seem to get the short end of the stick most of the time with little grace! 😉

Yeah, Barnaby was a scrappy, Eddie Shore type player. But I don’t recall him being a dirty player like Marchand. Then again, I could be misremembering.

I mostly remember him just running his mouth constantly. And he must’ve been good at it because it seemed like he was hated.
