Can't argue with that. In his prime he was the best all round player in the league.

Sorry but there is nothing great about this. This is typical Dale Hunter. Downright dirty. This play was even considered dirty in that era when a lot more physical play was allowed. This wasnt a good physical play. Hunter left his feet and launched himself at Gord Murphy getting him with an elbow to the face. Plays like this were very common for Hunter. Pretty much on a nightly basis when he was with the Nordique andthat continued in Washinbgton. Which is why I couldn't stand the guy as a hockey player. Ya he was tough. But he crossed the line way too often. I'm not talking about borderline plays. He was just doiwnright dirty.
BTW I liked Alan May but it wasnt much of a fight with Mellanby. Got to be honest the best play if the video was the move Khristich made on Gord Murphy.

I’ve always said there is a massive difference in those that are violent, intense, fueled with anger and hate, can be out of control, have a flippant regards to rules. and deserve their own listing in the DSMV 5, to the coward cheap-shot artist who only hit when the other players are looking, aggitate, rarely if ever get accept responsibility, and avoid face to face confrontation at all cost
Hunter was cleanly the first type, with trash like Hornquist, Cindy. Lumpy & Kunitz being the second
