Randy is my cousin. He had a brother Gary who was drafted by the Saint Louis Blues. He, right up to the 90s, was still brawling in men's league in Calgary, busting people's Jaws and such. Because of his reputation, people just had to try . He's a hoot at family reunions I'm told. I still have the three leading penalty minutes in the NHL hockey card with him framed by Tiger Williams and Dave Schultz.
When my former roommate said that his cousin was Randy Holt, I mentioned that Randy was best remembered for that one night against the Flyers but he said that he didn't know anything about it until I showed it to him in the NHL Record Book I had.
Gordie Howe was the most versatile team player of all time, two way player, prolific scorer, didn’t hesitate to drop the gloves and always wore thin elbow pads and sharp elbows, other teams hated him on the ice and loved him off the ice.
harles5000 Chembetrayals No. I was just wondering what the point in bringing up Gordy Howe was? This video is about a player with the most penalty minutes in a period. Howe did not pick up more penalties than anyone else in the league at that time. He was more skilled than that. Hence the Gordy Howe hat trick being a goal, fight and assist.It’s like bringing Eddie Shore up on a video about the most offsides that ever happened
Randy is one of my favorites of all time. I had season tickets with the Caps for his 2 years with them, and I was on the edge of my seat for every one of his shifts.
Randy was from my home town, I watched him play Juvenile. He was tough on the ice and gentle as a lamb off it. His brother Gary also played in the NHL. Nice guys!
@@randyholt4304 Heh Randy, D’Arcy is good, living in Mexico in winter and New Liskeard in summer. Very much enjoying his first grandchild! You’ll have to get in touch the next time you are in N.L.
@@sallyryan4359 Lynn and I were there this past summer for a couple of days. Lynn's brother Ray passed away. Just Ray's wife left in New Liskeard. Might have to visit D'Arcy in Mexico if he can give me an address of the place he stays at or owns. Talk to D'Arcy about that Sally and get back to me. Thanks in advance for your reply. Randy
That pic at 1:42 sums up the NHL prior to the 90s and giant contracts. The Rangers would public skate with kids after practice in the early 80s I was practically an infant but have pics of me at 3 with my hand held by several players. Most notably Nick Fotiu who would remember you and make a point to do a few laps around the rink The toughest guys had the biggest hearts
Hi, thanks for the praise of Stan and myself, but I beat Stan in Junior A and I beat him when he was with the Boston Bruins. Great fighter and great teammate but he didn't do well against me.
Hey there, Odd Man. Just a note to let you know I enjoy the subject of your videos. Even more so given your accent. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems you're from the U.K. If so, I would love to see some commentary from the pro league in the U.K. Any footage from former NHL players would be awesome to see. No big deal if there's no footage; your NHL commentary is very good. Keep on keeping on, Odd Man Rush
I have this whole brawl on tape, it was the 1st tape i ever got as a kid in the late 80s. the video actually had some VERY weird background music on it but i absolutely loved that on tape.. The NHL is soooo vanilla and boring these days, there is some occasional fireworks but the league is night and day different from the great days of the 90s and early 2000s, i barely can watch the current game as its just so vanilla most nights,. Sports needs rivalries and good guys/bad guys, white hats vs black hats (makes it interesting) ... i hated the Flyers in the back in the day but i LOVED watching their games as the amount of intensity they brought to a game, so fun and entertaining
Ive reatched a documentary. With enforces players were more likely to cheap shot. Ei, more stick infractions, cheap hits etc because there is no punishment besides a 2 min penalty
Might rename my personal trophy I award players with the most Penalty Minutes to “The Randy Holt Trophy” Or Maybe keep it the Marty McSorley Trophy. Lol
Marty McSorely #33 ...man I loved Marty on my LA Kings teams , such a great era of hockey 🏒 that 70s-80s physical rough style man , 90s were great too! I haven’t watched one full game since LA won 2nd Cup in 14’ , sure some Kings games here and there but I knew my hockey life was complete , saw #99 skate before my very eyes and miss a Cup in 93’ , then 20 years later WE get our first cup !! 2nd Cup was delirium, and then I drifted off into memories and Internet Highlights from my glory years past as a human being and witnessing something I actually loved and enjoyed , when we had freedoms and life was truly good . Good luck to you all and may God bless you all
Saw Tiger on my Kings team as well ! Scored on a breakaway 0:06 seconds into the first against Hartford , gave me a wink ( my lady ) in row2 right off the left face off circle as he cruised by the glass after he scored and they piled up there .. Mark Hardy fought that night for LA , maybe against Janssens ? Thanks guys
Dave " the hammer " Schultz was not only the most feared fighter in hockey with a league record 472 penalty minutes in the 74 75 season.............he was so popular he recorded a musical album
I also believe this game set the PIM record at the time which was later beat by the North Stars -Bruins in 81 and then later by the Flyers/Sens in the nineties. Fantastic recap here Odd Man!
My 67 minutes for a period and game has never been beaten. The whole game penalty minutes has been beaten. My 67 minutes for a single period and game will never be broken.
@@randyholt4304 this is a fact. Both overall team PIM record as well as Holts Indio game record will never be beat. In fact there are team leaders FOR THE SEASON now that have less than what Randy did in 1 game.
Unfortunately, there is not a real lot of video of him, but he was an enforcer on the level of any of the tough guys in the mid 70s like Dave Schultz, Dan Maloney, Steve Durbano etc. He also had a vicious left hand.
Wouldn't it be a better idea of you said the '80% not subscribed' thingy at the end of the video instead of at the beginning? Someone that watched the whole video is much more likely to subscribe
I remember him when he used to play for the Thunder Bay Thunder Cats of the United Hockey League. A lot of fights were had when that league was still around.
Still not as crazy as Link Gaetz , do a video on him. He was on some teams for one day because he would fighting, owners, teammates , GMs, bar fights. On ice and off ice fighter.
Visit my dads Facebook page. Randy Holt Hockey Career to see more articles, videos and photos. Thank you for sharing and including the details that my dad shares when he retells this story. He always shares he was told to ret-tie his skates as they were coming for him :) Enjoy, The Holt Family.
I played in a Church league in Calgary in the 90's. I played with Randy for a couple of years. He skated around never imposing himself on the game. Once someone was cross checking Randy, acting like an idiot and was warned to stop. It continued until Randy ended the guy's game in thee seconds. A few years later I heard he was arrested for assault in Edmonton. I don't know the circumatance in this case.
Hi David and thanks for your backing in how I played in the Church league. The Edmonton incident was caused by idiots and by the time I finished with them, they knew that they made a bad mistake facing me.
Not sure where you got that penalty sheet but it is not accurate. I watched the game on TV in LA and seen the full video. Steve Jensen did not fight Bob Kelly but did fight Mel Bridgeman THREE times. Bob Kelly fought Mark Heaslip. Go back an watch Holt and Holmgren and you will see Holt nail him twice right at the end.
How is it possible? One game misconduct for getting three major penalties, one for getting two 10 misconduct penalties and one for general principles, I guess. One misconduct was for getting two major penalties.
Yes Butch and Marcel Dionne needed protection. Butch was a star and Marcel was a superstar. Teams like the Philadelphia Flyers and the Boston Bruins tried everything possible to stop those two and their lines were excellent and hard to stop so I stepped in if they got carried away with Butch and Marcel.
If you watched the game you saw Holt sucker punch the Flyers’ smallest player from behind, punch him again while he was down, then try to drive his head into the ice. Sorry bud - there wasn’t a team in the NHL who wouldn’t have emptied their bench to go after him.
I watched the game and am a huge hockey fan. Holt did sucker punch him, but Lineman was a dirty player. He had a reputation. His nickname was "the Rat"
@@benballesteros6346 That was Blake Dunlop he suckered. The next season Holt did if fact sucker Linesman in another game that started another bench clearer.
Holmgren thought he was going to mop up Holt and found out otherwise. Three straight left hands on the button and Holmgren was holding on so he wouldn't hit the ice. Holt was tough as nails.
@@huntercalgary Holmgren was hanging on to Holt or he would've hit the ice. You can see him say something to Holt after that last big right after the lefts. Please no more lol.
Thanks and what you said is totally true. Paul pulled me in after those 3 punches in a row and asked me if he was bleeding. I said yes and were we going to continue? He said no and let go of me.
Riley, fighting was a big part of my era and it was a mistake to try bad shit against any team I played for. I was actually an allstar one season and I was drafted into the NHL pretty high. I could play hockey but teams like the Philadelphia Flyers and the Boston Bruins tried to hurt my teammates and so I stopped them. Simple as that Riley.
@@RobDog65 Rob, I was an excellent fighter for any height and weight. I beat player's that were up to 6'9" tall, 7feet tall in skates and that weighed 300lbs. I was 5'10" tall and weighed 185lbs. I worked 4 summer's as a teenager in a lumberjack camp and I could benchpress 400lbs. That strength allowed me to beat the very biggest and best of fighter's.
Keith Edginton I was surprised Montreal beat them 4 straight in 76, that should have been Philadelphia’s year! But Montreal fielded one of their best lineups ever, possibly Larry Robinson’s best playoff, he dominated that year. Loved Bobby Clarke’s intensity. The Broad-street bullies peaked in 75.
harles5000 Chembetrayals Larry Robinson was a beast! He was brought in to stop the Flyers running at people. They still had an impressive season. Clarke winning the Hart trophy and Reggie Leach the Conn Smythe trophy. The only non goalie from a losing Stanley Cup side to win it. Montréal had a very good team from Bowman on down as is proven by their run of 4 straight Cup wins. Those couple of playoff series the Flyers had vs Toronto were crazy. Tough games. Stay healthy and hopefully normalcy returns soon.
I've played with a lot of tough guys. Drafted by New England WHA, MY roomie at camp was NICK FOTIU. He saved my ass. My agent then sent me to Chicago's camp where my roomies were Randy Holt and and Doug Kerslake. Randy was built like a Brick Shithouse. If you're into checking stats i also played with Wally Weir, Quebec,Mike Busniuk Philly NHL, Gilles Bilodeau, James Troy, Frankie Beaton . They were Teddy Fears off the ice except for TROY(NYR). He was big , tough and could really throw them, so he didn't put up with much. DWANE BYERS BEAUCE 1975
Thanks for your comments about me and some of the toughest hockey players I ever fought or played with. I worked 4-5 summers leading to my draft year at my uncle's Lumberjack camp. 14 hour days in July and August. Gary, my older brother who played 7 years pro, 2 in the NHL and 5 in the minor pro leagues said to me. "RANDY, YOU EVER NOTICE HOW WE ARE STRONGER THAN EVERYONE?"
@@randyholt4304 Randy, Old Boy, (I'm 70 now ) your brother was right, you guys were Strong as hell or you couldn't have inflicted the damage that you did. BUT, you could also fight and CRAZY as it seems, YOU were a really good defenseman. I'm glad I never had to fight you in front of the net, you could have thrown me over the glass, and I was 188 lbs..I'm glad you're still breathing Brother, lol, all the best
@@THESANDMAN9 Thanks for saying that I was a good defenseman. Most people just talk about my fighting, but you don't get drafted as high as I did if I could just fight.
Randy is my cousin. He had a brother Gary who was drafted by the Saint Louis Blues. He, right up to the 90s, was still brawling in men's league in Calgary, busting people's Jaws and such.

Another cousin of randy here .. he’s pretty much our family’s claim to fame Great video !
Would love to have beers with this guy......
Loved your video, brother. I miss the old days of Hockey.
Thank you for sharing this old footage.
Gordie Howe was the most versatile team player of all time, two way player, prolific scorer, didn’t hesitate to drop the gloves and always wore thin elbow pads and sharp elbows, other teams hated him on the ice and loved him off the ice.
He was a great & tough but Eddie Shack knocked him out twice.
Grant Wilson Eddie Shack was a real good man, good player, great fighter and funny as hell!
Everyone knows this. What does Gordy Howe have to do with this video?

see the picture of him with Stan Johnathan at 8:50 to 8:55? That would have been one heck of a scrap, two of the best middleweights in NHL history!
They did fight, Jonathan lost, was probably in that game from the pic.

When the Kings played the 70's Flyers; *this should be interesting*
Love your videos!!!! Just wanted to post that!!!! Keep it up!!!!
My thoughts exactly! This is now my favorite hockey channel!! His pieces are always interesting.
Holt was brought in specifically in anticipation of dealing with the Broadstreet bullies!
Great video.
Bob Kelly of the Flyers was Hound Dog Kelly.
The Randy Holt game was also had the most penalty minutes combined by two teams until the Bruins/North Stars game of 1981.
I have this whole brawl on tape, it was the 1st tape i ever got as a kid in the late 80s. the video actually had some VERY weird background music on it but i absolutely loved that on tape..

Andy Boemer used to sell those tapes out of Minnesota. He would advertise in the hockey news.
Randy Holt gave me one of his sticks at the last game of that 79/80 season. Having season seats behind the bench had some perks
Goons had their place and other teams were less likely to cheap shot the stars when the goons were on the ice!
Ive reatched a documentary. With enforces players were more likely to cheap shot. Ei, more stick infractions, cheap hits etc because there is no punishment besides a 2 min penalty
Without enforces*****
I sas this on a documentary and honestly it makes so much sense
Might rename my personal trophy I award players with the most Penalty Minutes to “The Randy Holt Trophy” Or Maybe keep it the Marty McSorley Trophy. Lol
That is Tiger William's trophy. And Tiger could play some hockey also.

Back in like 2013, i had a Randy Holt jersey made in the 1980 blue and yellow 😊
Impressive feat Mr Holt!
One of the most beloved players in NHL history.
I like the rough elements of the game today but man am I happy it has evolved past this..
It's a sissy game now just like the rest of society. It's FAKE
First hockey game I ever attended. I was 10 years old. Funny how he ended his career with the Flyers. He still hates Linseman to this day
I was at the Spectrum this day and Randy Holt showed us no fear..
My family had season tickets in Calgary, I remember him playing there...long time ago.
You said 1348 penalty minutes instead of 1438 when saying his overall stats
He’s a fucking beauty!!! Love seeing Randy Holt footage!!!
Thanks Bryan.
1 penalty minute for every 3.3 minutes of play.
Randy Holt can rest assured that he owns a record that will never be broken.
Unfortunately, there is not a real lot of video of him, but he was an enforcer on the level of any of the tough guys in the mid 70s like Dave Schultz, Dan Maloney, Steve Durbano etc. He also had a vicious left hand.

Alright that’s impressive. Holy had to spend 7 minutes in the box after the game ended 🤣
Hey OddManRush, you should do a video about “Mad” Mel Angelstad. One of the best fighters minor hockey has ever seen
I remember him when he used to play for the Thunder Bay Thunder Cats of the United Hockey League. A lot of fights were had when that league was still around.
If I'm not mistaken, Jim Dorey had his high penalty minute game in his NHL debut.
For whatever happens to you should do Ben Scrivins as he went from the top to the bottom really fast
Wow 67
Still not as crazy as Link Gaetz , do a video on him. He was on some teams for one day because he would fighting, owners, teammates , GMs, bar fights. On ice and off ice fighter.

Ah? Yeah. He did. How many fight did Butch Goring get in with his garbage pail helmet? I never saw him in a fight. He could score goals though.
Odd fact about Butch is look at 2:51 and you can see how dark his skates are. He didn’t have laces. He had specially made skates with Velcro straps.

I wish hockey was still played like this. Everything is so fake and phoney now and it shows all over the country. Sad
the original Gordie Howe hat trick was a Goal an Assist and a Penalty ....it is only in the last few decades it has changed to a fight
Why do u kick a guy out of the game 3 times? Lol.
What was the final score?

6-3 Flyers

Yes, a Flyers fan.
1975-76 season wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1975-76_NHL_season

Larry Robinson was a beast! He was brought in to stop the Flyers running at people. They still had an impressive season. Clarke winning the Hart trophy and Reggie Leach the Conn Smythe trophy. The only non goalie from a losing Stanley Cup side to win it.
Montréal had a very good team from Bowman on down as is proven by their run of 4 straight Cup wins.
Those couple of playoff series the Flyers had vs Toronto were crazy. Tough games.
Stay healthy and hopefully normalcy returns soon.
Toughest pound for pound fighter was Stan Jonathan of the Bruins
Jonathan lost to Holt, duhhh.
I beat Stan in Junior A and I beat Stan in the NHL. I liked the way Stan played so I will say no more.
