The 67-Penalty-Minute Game: Holt is the only player in NHL history to be assessed more penalty minutes than the length of an actual game. His 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.
