from Andrew Farrell of Forbes,
As a kid, Donald Brashear wanted to be a boxer. He didn’t get his wish exactly, but he came pretty close.
Brashear is now a 36-year-old professional hockey player for the Washington Capitals. Officially, he’s a left winger, but he’s just as likely to be called an enforcer. He checks hard and punches harder.
Brashear’s stats reflect his pugnacious playing style. Through Dec. 19, Brashear has earned 2,487 penalty minutes in 957 career NHL games. He’s also on our list of the most suspended athletes in major U.S. team sports over the past dozen years. According to Stats Inc., the winger ranks eighth with six suspensions.
read on and other hockey players listed are Chris Pronger with 6, Andre Roy 6 & Scott Nichol 5.
