Anaheim Ducks: The Top 5 Enforcers in Franchise History

T4 – Jared Boll (2016-2018) & Todd Fedoruk (2005-2007)

Here we have a dual entry at number four. I put these two together because they both did similar things in their short time with the club. Both Todd Fedoruk and Jared Boll were primarily signed to be the team’s muscle and protect the smaller, more vulnerable, players. Additionally, both had varying degrees of success but did what they were paid to do quite often.

Jared Boll

Did you guys see this one coming? Well if not, you should have. Jared Boll was signed at the start of the 2016-2017 season after nine seasons with Columbus Blue Jackets. He was primarily a 4th liner sent out to match up against teams with strong physical presences.

Boll frequently had bouts against crosstown rivals Kurtis MacDermid and Kyle Clifford while in a Ducks sweater but had consistent altercations with old foes such as Cody McLeod, Deryk Engelland, George Parros, and Cam Janssen to name a few.

He scored four points (1G, 3A) in sixty-one games, over two seasons with Anaheim. Sadly, as many of us know, Boll was forced to retire this summer due to some serious back issues.

Todd Fedoruk

After the 2004-2005 lockout season, Fedoruk was traded to Anaheim from Philly, where he spent the first seven years of his career. In 86 games with Anaheim over two seasons, “The Fridge” would accumulate twenty-six points and 210 penalty minutes.

Fedoruk dropped gloves with many notable tough guys, like George Laraque, Brad May, George Parros, and Derek Boogaard on a fairly consistent basis. His most notable fight in a Ducks sweater took place on October 26, 2006. That night he took on Derek Boogaard and sustained a brutal facial injury after falling to the ice as a result of a KO punch.

During reconstructive surgery, he had titanium plates put in his face to repair the damage caused by the fight. Fedoruk was be traded back to Philly later that season.
