Synopsis

Crunch introduces bodychecking and shotblocking players, power forwards, agitators, and fighters, from the legendary warriors-on-ice such as Gordie Howe and Bobby Baun, to the current tough-guy stars of the NHL, including Darren McCarty, Stu Grimson, Keith Tkachuk, and Eric Lindros. Read stories about players who go back into the game with painful injuries, on-ice rivalries, powerful checks, and great shot blocks. The history of fighting and the future of violence in hockey is addressed in this powerful tribute to the players who go out there night after night and fight for their team.
