LATEST | Former Canucks enforcer Donald Brashear drops the mitts during senior men's game
For the past four seasons, former Vancouver Canucks enforcer Donald Brashear has been lacing them up in a senior men's league in Quebec and over the weekend, he got back to his old ways and dropped the mitts.
The 51-year-old Brashear took on another tough guy, Derek Parker, who's been a notorious fighter for many years in the LNAH, including in the 2005-06 season where he put up over 500 penalty minutes.
The fight between Brashear and Parker lasted over a minute, but neither player threw many punches and were holding onto each other for the majority of the tilt. Parker then got his head stuck in his jersey and fell to the ice where the officials got in between and ushered the two players to the penalty box.
During his NHL days, Brashear was one of the most feared fighters and has a total of 277 fights to his name while playing in hockey's top league. The Bedford, Indiana native spent parts of six seasons with the Vancouver Canucks between 1996-97 and 2001-02 before being traded to the Philadelphia Flyers.
