Raffi Torres is to the NHL what Dennis Rodman was to the NBA, except more dangerous. He has been called the most hated hockey player in modern history. His dirty style of play gained him a terrible reputation with both fans and fellow players. Let’s review his rap sheet.

In 2011, Torres was suspended four games for head-hunting. A year later, Torres was suspended two games for leaving his feet on a hit. But it gets worse, he had to sit out 25 games after hitting someone so savagely it gave the player a concussion. He was a bad boy.
