Your first NHL Fight with Stu Grimson 

Grimson is a pretty cool cat. My first memory of him was going nuts against Toronto in the early 90's so I thought he was just a lunatic. I was surprised when I saw how soft spoken and laid back he is.

Glad to see both gentlemen are healthy, both physically and mentally.

It's strange calling these guys goons cause they are the nicest, brightest and most articulate gentlemen around... great listening to these two

Stu was a legit badass and a great fighter.

This is great insight into the thought process and game of the enforcer. Thanks for posting!

This dude beat up so many of my favourite players back in the day, lol. Despite that I always respected him as being one of the best enforcers I ever saw play. Very well-spoken and intelligent guy too.

Mr. Scott, great interview....you let him finish thoughts.......so many interviewers do not.....excellent....

John, this was GREAT!!!

Great interview. Two of the coolest guys on the planet.

I’m really loving this series! Funny as hell and gives a lot of light into real players lives! Thanks John Scott!!

Amazing how intelligent and well spoken Grimson is considering how he was an old school tough as nails top heavy weight fighter.

This was a great video John! I miss guys like Stu in the NHL.

RIP ------ NHL NO HIT LEAGUE. THANK GOD FOR RU-vid SO WE CAN SEE WHEN MEN PLAYED IN THE NHL...

This was absolutely great! Stu is a fantastic guy

Hull and Gretzy both said that without enforcers they would have been killed on the ice. And both put up ridiculous amounts of points you rarely even see today.

Stu Grimson is your landlord. You pay the rent on time. Great interview.

Two of my all time favorites. I partly modeled my game after Stu. I used to program my vcr to get video of the replays on games when he fought. Now we have RU-vid to see them all, and I don't get to drop the mitts any more (not sure I miss it)! I really enjoyed this interview, great job John and Stu.

Who put a thumbs down? This was an awesome interview.

Awesome interview

John, excellent interview!

Great channel! Hope this takes off! Keep up the good work John!!

What an awesome video! I truly loved watching this, hockey players are absolutely the best sportsmen to listen reminiscing. Real, likeable, gentlemen. Bravo!

Class acts, both of them!

4:10 oh shit, that's a blast from the past, Rocky Thompson. No kidding, watched him fight 5 times in a single AHL game back in the day, 3 times against Gerry Flemming who was a big lad. Stu is such a nice guy on top of being one of the best enforcers to ever lace up.

Great interview! I hope you keep doing this!

Hockey players are the most down-to-earth athletes on the planet. Especially enforcers..

Good show! Hockey needs more fights! Old school was way better!

Just watched this. Thanks for sharing it. Great insight into that aspect of the game.

Love your videos. Cheers John!

16:22 Yzerman, Probert, Kocur and Grimson were all drafted by the Wings in 1983, the year I was born!!!!!

Love this! 3rd time watching.

I wasn't that impressed with Grimson (other than his size) when he first came to the Blackhawks but he was a guy who just got better as a technical fighter and on-ice policeman as he got into his late 20s and early-mid 30s. He really developed his craft.

"I fought probie 14 times" lol

I actually played some adult summer league games with Stu Grimson in SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH when I was a 17 year old Goalie!!! Literally, no shit! He played for the Salt Lake Golden Eagles in the IHL, look it up!!! My coaches when I was on the bantam travel team called team Utah were Paul Skidmore, and Gary Burns both of them were IHL veterans (they retired in Salt Lake and both coached youth hockey) and I'm pretty sure they both played significant amounts in the "show" THE NHL!!!

Two highly educated goons

Gino Odjicks 1st heavy weight bout in 1st game included the Grim reaper, I was there

The Grim Reaper was a bad dude. Great stuff.

Tie Domi was my favorite, was doing the "discount double check" before anyone else...lol...

Who doesn't love Grimson? It's hilarious when I think about him in a courtroom as a lawyer, then I remember that time he absolutely lost his shit on the ice and skated around attacking everyone 😂😂😂

From the looks of you John, I never would've guessed you were a hockey enforcer!!!!!! OR THAT YOU WERE SO HUGE!!!!! 6'8"!!!!!!! THAT'S ALMOST AS TALL ZDENO CHARA, THE TALLEST PLAYER EVER IN THE NHL!!!!!!!

Would have loved to have seen Scott play in the 1980s or 1990s. I think he would have done well, even though I'm not sure he has enough of a mean streak. He's just too nice a guy (which is a good thing!)

Probie hated how his fighting ability took away from his time in the offensive zone trying to help his team, but took on the enforcer roll for his team nonetheless. Great interview John.

14:58 He played over 720 games, too!!!!

Its getting nuts in here !!! Port .

Go Tech !

How is Grimson's head THAT big.

Wow, Stu’s an attorney?

nice guys!

I like the old school hockey better. I would rather watch Stu beating guys up.

He asked if Grimson likes the NHL now more than back when he played and as a fan I have to disagree. I would much rather have an intense chippy game were you can feel the emotion over an emotionless 3-2 game which is what the NHL seems like nowadays.

Great story. They fought again and Brown destroyed the reaper.

John needs to let his guest talk

15:58 Grimson never mentioned Jeremy Roenick!!!!! :(

The blonde kid in the background has that Vietnam war vet flashback face.

Great interview. I would suggest when interviewing someone, to not talk too much. Stu was going to make a point that I wanted to hear but you kept talking and moved on.

8:14. Ugh, not me. Hockey is so boring now that the physical side has basically disappeared. No thanks.

Might wanna change the title Dave Brown was not his first fight just sayin.

Good effort but John you need to,let your guest speak and finish their point . Don’t interrupt as much.

you two sound like real nice guys...given a dirty job....perhaps in a next life you will be scorers or playmakers...!

The grim still has awesome hair, knock me out but don't touch the mane

All those people milling around don't know who these guys are, they are missing a lot.

I hate the game where it's at today, Stu. It's a boring shitshow. But I'm glad that you enjoy it.

Stu, suck it up. Your a gentleman but you must admit you got ure ass kicked by Rocky ;-)

Those are some freaky ass people in back ground...just saying. 🙄

I hate the NHL now. Fancy stick handling isn’t anywhere nearly as entertaining as old time hockey.

stu lies he never beat brown. yet brown owned him in a memorable fight.

Even the mighty Nick Fotiu admitted he was scared out of his mind at times. Terriy O'Reiley, George Laraque said the same. Jay Miller said he was such a crazy aggressive fighter because he was scared.
