He Chose Humanity over Hockey - The Peter Zezel Story

4/1/2022

With his movie star looks, gregarious personality and stellar two-way play, Peter Zezel was a popular player with Mike Keenan’s youthful Philadelphia Flyers teams of the 1980s.  Later, Zezel would go on to earn accolades with the St. Louis Blues and would help lead the Toronto Maple Leafs to their best post-season performances in the modern era.

Documentary: Larry "The Rock" Zeidel "The Most Violent Player Ever!

6/15/2021

1 Comment

 

​Philadelphia Flyers Defenseman Larry “The Rock” Zeidel was called the dirtiest player in hockey -- a vicious soulless maniac who instigated some of the most violent stick swinging attacks in hockey history.

But the Larry Zeidel story is more complicated than just a rap sheet of his reckless assaults.  By all accounts he was a quiet and well-spoken man off the ice.  But what fueled the burning rage -- the unrelenting hatred -- that Zeidel unleashed on bloodied and maimed opponents in a savage 20-year professional hockey career?
