Remembering Dave Semenko: Hockey’s most important tough guy

Related Topics: Dave Semenko, Ice Guardians

Back in November, I had the opportunity attend the St. Louis premiere of Ice Guardians at The Pageant. Since I was a huge fan of enforcers in the game and their unsung role, this movie was a dream come true for me, but that was only the beginning of the allure. I got to watch the movie with a room full of tough guys that included Kelly Chase, Cam Janssen, Reed Low, Ryan Reaves, Joe Kocur, and Dave Semenko.

In case you didn’t know, Semenko was Wayne Gretzky’s bodyguard during the golden years of the Edmonton Oilers.
