Bob Probert is my favorite complete player, bar none. He was my Hero in Detroit. My son loved him. He lived his life the way he wanted. It is not for us to judge, but respect. He lived life to its fullest. God Bless The Probert family…..Bob B.

My first NHL game was @ the Joe. I knew nothing about the sport & than came #24. The energy the passion, the way he always had his teammates back. Having your back covered is priceless. You,ve made a lifelong fan out of this little girl, You will forever be missed, beloved & your famaily prayed for. THANK YOU FOR YOU.

Bob, like many greats before him, an unmistakable enforcer with iron fists and a heart of gold. Steve Y would contest that Proby was a true warrior and a team player. Who cares about all the scandall during his career,,,,being an avid wings fan from Canada is solely because of great players like him….I was so shocked to hear this….he will never be forgotten…God Bless

If every Hockey Club had 20 Bob Probert’s the hockey world would be so much better today. Every Stadium would have 20,000 + Standing room only People would not mind spending 200$ for a night and paying 6$ for a hot dog rather than watching the hot dog’s on ice now. And I am sure it will take the family a long time to get over this even though we never do, But remember 1 thing he was 1 hella of guy. And the champ live’s for ever. God Bless

Having your casket on a motorcycle sidecar is badass.
Just like Bob Probert. Those comments from his daughter are just heartbreaking.
RIP dude.
