Former Detroit Red Wings enforcer Probert dies - ESPN

"My favorite memory of Bob would be sitting down before a game, going over the opposing lineup and picking and choosing who would go first and if the goalie would be safe or not," Kocur said. "It was great to be able to go out on the ice knowing that he had my back and I had his."

This is my memory of Bob Probert, fighting the ex Oiler, ex-King Marty McSorley:

Dude was a bad boy... One of my all-time favorite enforcers along with Mr. Domi in Toronto.

Wow, this caught me off guard. I guess, in retrospect, it shouldn't be that shocking given his various issues. Condolences to the family.



On a less morbid note: I just read the ESPN article. Holy shit, they drafted Probert, Joey Kocur, and Stu Grimson in one class? I guess they wanted to make certain nobody took any liberties with Stevie Y.
