Paul Bissonnette, a former Arizona Coyotes hockey player known as “Biz,” was attacked at a bar in Scottsdale, Arizona. The 39-year-old spoke out after surveillance footage surfaced in December 2024, revealing what happened.

What Happened to Paul Bissonnette?

Bissonnette went out for dinner to a local restaurant in Scottsdale, which he said he visits “three [or] four times a week.”

“At one point, there was a bit of a ruckus going on in the bar,” Bissonette said in his X (previously known as Twitter) video, which was shared on Monday, November 25. “It was a bunch of drunk golfers. Things obviously continued to escalate. They [asked] one guy to leave, and one guy kept getting in the manager’s face and put his hands on him. And that went on probably for about 30, 45 seconds.”

After seeing the group harass the restaurant’s manager, Bissonnette claimed he “just grabbed the guy’s arm,” and told him, “Sir, if you continue to harass and assault the staff, we’re gonna have problems.” At this point, the group of golfers “started chucking,” Biz claimed.

“It escalated extremely quickly,” the NHL alum explained, adding that he fought with the men in the restaurant and outside in the parking lot. “Got taken down a couple times. Got boot f**ked to the head three times.”

While he didn’t “get knocked out,” Bissonnette had to go to the hospital. So, he wanted to clarify to his followers that he is physically OK and to emphasize that he wanted the attackers to be exposed.

“Just bad dudes. Way too drunk, and I don’t know what else they had in their system,” Bissonnette elaborated. “But, yeah, I’m very, very angry about these guys and want their names out there and want them to pay the piper.”

Bissonnette sustained minor injuries from the fight, which he showed on camera in his X video. Two scrapes were visible on both sides of his face. His Barstool Sports podcast co-host, Ryan Whitney, reshared the mugshots of the six perpetrators via X. Barstool’s owner, Dave Portnoy, also reshared the mugshots, tweeting that the assailants “picked the wrong guy” to fight.

While he shared his side of the story, police released surveillance footage of the fight showing the former athlete running shirtless while being followed by several men. On December 10, 2024, he wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter): “This is the worst of it I took after I knock out that inbred William Carroll fuck before we pass the dumpster. It was never going to be a fair fight. Let the games begin. Ate some boot fucks to the head & jaw but wouldn’t change a thing. F*ck the Scottsdale Six. This ain’t over.”
