record-setting performance came on March 11, 1979, while he was playing for
Los Angeles against the Flyers at the Philadelphia Spectrum. All of the
penalty minutes were assessed in the first period, as Holt received one minor,
three majors, two 10-minute misconducts and three game misconducts. The first
penalty was a minor at 10:25. Holt then took a double major and misconduct for
fighting with Frank Bathe at 14:58. He then became involved in a
bench-clearing brawl at the end of the first period, for which he received a
major, misconduct and triple game misconduct. Holt was deemed the main
instigator of the fight and was forced to sit out Los Angeles' next three
games. |
