Paul Stewart on Alex Burrows

Paul Stewart is best known as a former NHL referee, but he also was a NHL/WHA tough guy. He's admitted to run-ins with players/refs while on both sides of the coin, including one when the ref skated up to him in the pre-game warm up:
“Bill Friday said to me, ‘Stop acting like an idiot,’ I skated to the bench right away and said, ‘Hey, did you hear what Friday just said?’ And Floyd Smith said to me, ‘He’s right. Stop acting like an idiot.’”
There's lots more in this great piece by David Shoalts.
