Jody Sheckter won the F1 Driver's title in 1979, but he was also a champion in another sporting event, what was it?
Nope. They made the cup finals in 2015-16. That means they won three playoff rounds to get there.
So who does hold the record for losing the most NHL fights? I said Steve Durbano, when he played for the St Louis Blues he became a convenient punching bag for the Broad Street Pussies. He couldn't tolerate Bobby Clarke slicing up his players with his stick.
I picked Keith Magnusson. He played for Chicago and was the only guy on the team who would fight...and I don't think he ever landed a punch. Honourable mention to Carl Brewer ...who only got into one fight and almost got killed by Murray Balfour. In fact a well known athlete come out of the stands to rescue Brewer. Can you name him? And yes, I am stuck in the sixties
George Chuvalo...I couldn't suspend my disbelief when Jeff Goldblum snapped his wrist, arm wrestling in The Fly.

Correct!, goes to show that race car drivers are athletes.

Craig McTavish.
George Chuvalo hasn't been seen in the old neighbourhood, so I asked about his whereabouts. He's living at the Assisted Living Center at West Park. I met him once and asked him about the scene in the Cronenberg film...he seemed almost offended - yikes!

I still find it amazing that he fought all the top heavy weights of his era and was never knocked down in his career.
