Quote:
David "The Hammer" Schultz (born October 14, 1949 in Waldheim, Saskatchewan) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey player. Schultz is renowned as one of hockey's greatest enforcers and holds the NHL record for most penalty minutes in a single season, at 472.
Schultz earned the nickname "The Hammer" for his aggressive style of hockey. He was one of the most notable enforcers on the Philadelphia Flyers' infamous "Broad Street Bullies". After winning two Stanley Cups with the Flyers (1973–74 and 1974–75), "The Hammer" drifted through several teams (Pittsburgh Penguins, Los Angeles Kings and Buffalo Sabres) looking for a permanent position. When different GMs tried to find some "muscle" for their fledgling clubs, his was a popular number to call.
Schultz was more than a traditional enforcer; he scored 20 goals for Philadelphia in 1973–74. He also scored the series-clinching goal in overtime in the first round of the 1974 Stanley Cup playoffs against the Atlanta Flames.

That makes 3 Flyer LW's on my team... I didn't plan it that way, but a psychiatrist might have a field day analyzing this, and the fact that I chose "Slap Shot" as my first pick in the CP movie draft.
