    Jim Kyte was always an inspiration. To reach the level that he did all while deaf is a great story. And he seems like a great guy. Was always a tough customer.

    Brownie was a Beast...alot of former NHL'rs that played this role have stated that Brownie was someone they all had a hard time with. Much Respect to Jimmy Kyte for all he did.

    You've gotta get Behn Wilson on. One of the very best tough guys from that era, who could also play the game (made an all-star team in 1980 and played a regular 3-4 defense pairing most of his career). He's very seldom interviewed and I'm sure has lots of great stories.

    Excellent story Props to Jim Kyte, took on everyone, here he's joking about Joey, man he hurt him but Jim looks OK now! PS I dare anyone to search all Dave Brown's fights, if he EVER throws a right hand, let me know!

    I always find it amazing how Kyte got into the NHL as a 19 year old, with how most enforcers, including Bob Probert and Joe Kocur were at least 20 when breaking in.

    1991 Smythe Division semi finals, Flames vs Oilers, I think it was game 4…. Kyte and Brown square off and Brown absolutely destroyed him. Kyte wound up flat on his back and Brown was on top of him hammering away. It looked like he was starting a lawn mower on poor Kyte, who was basically defenceless

      No code in that Era, you fought to win no matter what. Pull hair, elbow, headbutt, suckered punch, Purposely untied Jerseys, tight sleeves, drop the gloves faster than your opponents and even kick with skates. The dirtiest fighter was Dave Semenko, I'm surprised he never resorted to biting a guys ear off in close. 😂 Wendel Clark was the King of Jumpers by a country mile. Semenko and Crowder were specialists as well. Brown jumped some guys, and what other players didn't. War on skates!

      ​​@@FullChangePodcastI disagree that Melnyk "pummelled" Brown. A clear-cut draw is what I saw. Gutsy as hell by Melnyk to battle Brown toe-to-toe and not giving an inch. It made Brown so frustrated that he tried to decapitate Tomas Sandström later in the same game. Brown was pure evil through and through.
