Paul Bissonnette’s alleged Arizona restaurant brawl attackers identified, mug shots released


The identities of six men who brawled with ex-hockey player Paul Bissonnette in an Arizona restaurant have been revealed. 

Henry Mesker, John Carroll, William Carroll, Danny Bradley, Edward Jennings and Sean Daley were arrested after allegedly going to blows with the popular Barstool Sports podcaster and former NHLer on Sunday night at Houston’s in Scottsdale. 

Bissonnette, a longtime enforcer in the league, getting involved in 69 fights in his career, according to hockeyfights.com, apparently got a few licks in.

Mug shots of the half-dozen men show a few cuts and bruises. 

Bissonnette claims he stepped in after he saw a group of “drunk golfers” giving the restaurant staff a hard time. 

At one point, the former Arizona Coyotes forward said one of the men got into the manager’s face and started to get physical. 

“You could tell he was a little shocked and surprised and stunned,” Bissonnette recalled in a video posted to social media. “It’s a family restaurant. I don’t think there was anybody in there who could go maybe like help him out. I went over, I just grabbed the guy’s arm that was on him, I said ‘Sir, if you continue to harass and assault the staff, we’re going to have problems.’

“And then they just started chucking, so it escalated extremely quickly.”

Bissonnette admitted he got roughed up a bit as well during the seven-on-one brouhaha — with one alleged assailant still at large. 

“Got taken down a couple times,” he said. “Got boot-f–ked a couple of times by the CVS. Luckily didn’t get knocked out. Did go to the hospital, so that’s what everybody is reading about. Just bad dudes. Way too drunk and I don’t know what else they had in their system.

“I’m very, very angry at these guys and kind of want their names out there and kind of want them to pay the piper.”
