THROWBACK: McQuaid hammers Matthews into the boards; drops the gloves with Martin

Long gone are the "Big Bad Bruins" of the late 2000s and early 2010s.

One of the tough guys was defenseman Adam McQuaid, who appeared in 462 of his 512 career NHL games. The Bruins acquired the P.E.I. native from the Columbus Blue Jackets on May 16th, 2007, and became very famous amongst Bs fans during his playing days.

Thanks to hockeyfights.com, here's a throwback to one of Quaider's best fights, which was against Toronto Maple Leafs forward Matt Martin.
