      Bill, out of the big guys that the Flyers drafted last draft, are any of them similar to Tom Wilson? The Flyers could really use someone like him and last night was pretty obvious

      A lot of people, including himself, liken Martone on a young Corey Perry. Not quite as rambunctious but still very competitive. Nesbitt has a very competitive streak about him. Vansaghi is extremely physical: that’s the bread-and-butter of his game.

      In terms of a direct comparison to Wilson, that’s a tough bar to clear. But Wilson, despite being a first round pick, took quite a few years post-Draft to bring out the offensive end of his game. He was a 4th liner but an effective and unique one, for his early career.
