A few things.
[edit]First off, this is a BLP, so let's have none of the various peacock/weasel terms. Few people would likely remember this guy were it not for Slap Shot, and we could list dozens of minor-league goons with more of a rep: names like Evans, Kaminski, Laforge, Kerr, Roberge, Toporowski, Brophy, Henderson, Clark, Gagnon, Ball ...
Secondly, WP:UNDUE also applies. If we're going to include an unsourced quote about what a great player Goldthorpe was, I wouldn't have picked one from a guy who coached him all of four games. Ravenswing 11:54, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
