Garrett "Rocky" Burnett, a former NHL and minor-league enforcer, has reportedly died at the age of 46.
Btw, this man tossed a net at a goalie during a game.
Burnett appeared in 39 NHL games with the Anaheim Mighty Ducks in 2003-04, but his exploits in the minor leagues are legendary. He picked up an incredible 506 penalty minutes in one season with the AHL's Kentucky Thoroughblades in 1999-2000!
RIP Chief!
