Rookie card of "Leapin'" Louie Fontinato. Lou was a tough guy and the first player in NHL history to record over 200 minutes in penalties in a season. He is best known for his battles with Gordie Howe, which eventually boiled over with a famous fight in February of 1959. Gordie broke Louie's nose and jaw in the scrap. His career would end abruptly in 1963 when he sustained serious injuries while attempting to dish out a hard hit on the Rangers' Vic Hadfield. This tough guy rookie card is graded a nice 5 EX by SGC.
