Darryl Wolski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Darryl Wolski is a promoter and entrepreneur from Brandon, Manitoba, Canada.

Wolski is best known for creating the controversial "Battle of the Hockey Enforcers" tournament, in which hockey players brawled on ice for cash prizes. He created the event in 2003, although legal complications prevented the tournament from taking place until 2005.[1] The event was held in Prince George, British Columbia, after Winnipeg refused to host it. Wolski's exploits were subsequently chronicled in the film "Hockey Brawl: Battle on Thin Ice".

Wolski is a political conservative. He campaigned for the Brandon City Council in 1995, and finished a poor third against future cabinet minister Drew Caldwell.
