The Last Gladiators
 

Academy Award® winning Director Alex Gibney takes an unprecedented look at the National Hockey League’s most feared enforcers and explores the career of Chris “Knuckles” Nilan. The role was simple: protect their teammates no matter the cost. For Chris this meant a shattered body, addiction to drugs, and harming the people closest to him. But in the process, he won the love of hockey’s holy city, Montreal, and helped the team win the Stanley Cup. Through interviews with hockey’s toughest guys, the film explores what it means to enforce the unspoken code of the NHL.

Must see on my list....what these guys deal with needs to be made public and understood more....

Looks very good. Looking forward to seeing it.

I watched this last night On Demand. Also ordered the DVD from Amazon - great flick - one that all hockey fans should watch. Man, I miss the way the game was played.
