BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I saw this asked to Sens fans on SN's OverTime show (which I like) and the majority voted for Chara and McGrattan. Everyone who got a vote was automatically put as an option for you guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigRedC Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I said McGrattn. A year ago I would have said Laraque, but I feel the torch has been passed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 I feel bad for Laracques; no votes out of 4. I almost made Avery an option because he has the most penalty minutes. I only put Domi because someone on TV said it was him and a lo of people (believe it or not) think he's tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigRedC Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Well we all saw him get man-handled by McGrattn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_faerie87 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 By "tough" do you mean good in a fight or as in can play with a lot of pain? If it's the latter, then Begin hands down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm not sure. One old fan said Mario Lemieux. When you think tough who do you think of? That's who to choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafs Suck Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Why is Avery on the list? He isn't tough, he is a yellow bastard. Same with May. He is a piece of work as well. Worrell gets my vote. That guy is SCARY. wish gainey would have given him a tryout this year. he would look great beating the crap out vermin like avery, may and domi.

MAK Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 the problem with worrell is that he lacks brains how stupid is that; a black who tries to fool a cop by saying he's karlis skrastin( a russian??) i'm not sure but i think the guy went to jail twice already. I wish he was in MTL though... I have to say that I wish domi was a habs (not a yellow leaf) he's respected as a player, he stiil foght dispite is age and still manages to score about 10 goals a season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMAC Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Please Marky and Komi tell me you were joking! Tie Dummy as a habs? :puke::puke::puke: Only when they fire BG and replace him with Houle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the latter, then Begin hands down! Amen, df, amen. After seeing him leave the bottom of his face on the boards during that Boston playoff series and seeing him come back to the play so quickly... that's really tough! I can't imagine many players doing that. The residual pain through which he had to play must have been hard to bear. One tough dude! :king::king::king: :hlogo::ghg::hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'll have to go with Chara. Going down to the wire, I don't think anybody in the league could handdle Chara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycing Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I don't care who you are, there's no way you can beat chara.... the man is a beast... and I've heard he's trained in some kind of wrestling/fighting as well... where he did very well... IMO, Chara is a special case, and shouldn't really be on the list, lol. I haven't really seen McGratton fight, so my vote (after Chara), goes to Worrell, well at least until I get a good glimpse of what McGratton can do ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 McGrattan has 8 votes? I doubt anyone in the league can beat Chara in a fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathieug Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Come on here, only 1 vote for Georges -Rule 1: DON'T TURN DOWN A FIGHT- Laraque? Domi already has 2! [Edited on 19-11-05 by mathieug] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 Laraques is probably the toughest but no one can beat Chara. I think it was Mike Boone who said this in one of his annoying EEEEE Mails the day after Ivanans's fight: "After all, there's only one man on this planet who has half a chance of staying vertical in a fight against Chara and I don't like Shaq's chances on skates."

mathieug Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Ovechkin? No, just kidding, nice compilation http://dl8.rapidshare.de/files/6236639/241...echkin_boom.wmv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 Ovechkin is insane! He reminds me of Kovalchuk (did you see that blast from the point last night) except tougher. What a great checker. I'd definitely rather have him than Crosby but let's keep that topic off of this thread. I always thought Bryan Berard was tough because he doesn't wear a visor aftr nearly losing his eye. NOT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ch for life Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Just a cotton-pickin minute here... are we all forgetting about someone... The toughest man in the Nhl is by far: SAKU KOIVU!!! I mean talk about tough.. he plays throug everything...He comes back from cancer in the same year and hasn't missed signifigant playing time since..remember the last playoffs when everyone was saying that thornton would have been so much better if he didnt have that cracked rib.. only to find out that koivu had the same thing while leading the league in points and being half Joes size in the 'old NHL'. Man that is TOUGH.. I dont care who you can fight.. I'd like to see Chara try and take some of the pain that koivu has and keep coming on strong. That mental and physical toughness is what makes him a true leader for the HABS. CH for life..out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HABZRULE Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Eric Cairns is one bad mo-fo.Top 5 for sure. McGratton has done very well this year. So has Colton Orr for the Broooooons. I still say that Ivanans can take Chara because any punch can change a fight!!!:ghg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoRvInA Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Lets first define Tough! Toughest doesnt necesarily mean last man standing in a fight on a Ice rink!... I can assure you if we had Chara vs Begin or Domi with Ultimate fighting rules it be different I could see Domi elbowing Chara's crotch etc... I wouldnt be surprised Chara faints at the first sight of blood... Look when Chara break's his jaw and loses teeth and comes back to play then I'll grant you he's tough... Take it from me... I was always the biggest in school and i never got into a fight Not because I was tough but I was more intimidating and had they known I was a sissy I would have gotten my arse kicked!!

BTH Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 Ivanans is huge but not tough. Eric Cairns got his ass whipped by McGrattan last night. He stayed up for a few seconds though. And yes Saku is tough in a sense but when you think tough you don't think Saku right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
