Troy Crowder

Troy Crowder is a Canadian enforcer best known for beating Bob Probert in a fight on 4 October 1990, when Probert was the NHL's undisputed heavyweight champion. Crowder cut Probert's cheek that night, and the two met twice more in a single game the following January. Crowder played only 150 NHL games across four clubs, his career derailed by herniated discs that kept him out of the league for three seasons.
