Dude didn't just go 11-0, he also KO'd John Tortorella's career.

Big Ern is a beaut.

Surprised Sesito is so high on that list. Seems like a very mediocre scrapper to me.

I think you should get a McGrattan jersey instead.

One of the $22 retro jerseys I got at Sport Chek is definitely getting #16 on the back at some point in the near future.

haha, I even double checked the spelling because I thought that might happen and still got it wrong. Thanks for pointing it out McGrattan it is then!

It seems appropriate to mention that HockeyFights.com did a small interview with McGrattan to list his five top fighters currently in the NHL (link: http://www.hockeyfights.com/originals/story/brian-mcgrattan-top-five-fighters)

These are McGrattan's top 5:

1. Patrick Bordeleau
2. Luke Gazdic
3. Colton Orr
4. Matt Carkner
5. Jay Rosehill

His criteria was simply on fighting technique/ability, not on wins and losses.

8-10 are middle weights who would get whooped by guys like Engelland and Westgarth.

The visor still in play though? Penalty if a play ditch the helmet? That is a big advantage.
