POLL ADDED: Best Tough Guy in the NHL

We have Neil, but is he the best player/fighter out there? It's one thing to have an enforcer who sits on the bench 90% of the time but who do you think is the toughest SOB out there who can still PLAY. Is it Neil?

Sheldon Souray always impressed me, Leafs fans insist its Colton Orr, Lets hope Neil really proves himself again this year.

Parros. Hands down.

Carcillo or Orr

Lucic hands down.

Jared Boll on Columbus is my favorite

For fighters who fight only... Big George

For fighters who can play a regular shift (i.e. more than 5 minutes per game) its Lucic.

I'd say Lucic or Carcillo. Carcillo has some temper/attitude problems, but if he can overcome those- he's going to be quite a dynamic player in this league.

What about Chara? He doesn't fight often, but only because nobody wants to. I think that speaks volumes.

Souray is probably the biggest psycho out there when he gets pissed.

Best player/fighter? I'd give it to the current Norris trophy holder.

You are right on that second point...Chara by a mile. Lucic below him.

I would not want to go toe to toe with Laraque. I think he could really Diddle you up.

Same with Chara.

Should do a poll...

Between which fighters?

Carcillio can be more than just a goon. he's got a very underrated skillset.

I would have loved to have this guy instead of Neil.

Grass is always greener I guess.

Chara, Lucic, Neil, Clarkson, Lapariere, Burrows, O'Brien....

I guess Chara might be the overwhelming favourite?
