Ed Johnstone vs Norm Barnes & Behn Wilson vs Barry Beck
Ed Johnstone ( New York Rangers ) vs Norm Barnes ( Philadelphia Flyers ) & Behn Wilson / Paul Holmgren vs Barry Beck & Bob Kelly vs Mario Marois (rough) – NHL hockey fight Dec 16, 1979
Frank Beaton would of fit in today in the world of fake news. Boy were we sold a BS story with Frank Beaton who went from Seldom Beaton to always Beaton!
One of my all time favorites. Rangers for once had multiple fighters on ice so coward Flyers could not take advantage and double team. What happened to tough guy Bridgeman, wanted no part of Hospodar
This is why I like YT. As a Ranger I'm telling my kid this is what a Ranger is.God knows we suffered but listen to the fans . Just malese proud to be a Rangers fan.Pass it on to my kid.
Three takeaways from this classic. First, this may be the best all time tough guy lineup Rangers ever had on ice at once. Second, glad to see Eddie Johnstone redeem himself by destroying Norm Barnes, long way from beating he took from Dave Hoyda. Third, love how “tough guy” Mel Bridgman wanted no part of Eddie Hospodar.
Jeez, look at the goon squad Philly had out there, Wilson, Holmgren, Bridgman, Kelly, and Barnes. At least Bridgman could play hockey. Johnstone was wise to pair off with Barnes

Between 2:19 and 2:26 Beck nailed Wilson a right and two powerful lefts. That second left almost dropped Wilson and snapped his head back!

Was Fotiu around or was he in a ginny T in the stands, or was he a Whaler?
When Wilson whacked Johnstone Frank Beaton should have whacked Wilson. But Frank "Always beaten" Beaton was too much of a coward to hit Wilson.
Bubba Beck hanging on for dear life. Beck finally met someone he couldn't bully.
