Original Toronto Star caption: In thick of action: Philadelphia Flyers' Bobby Clarke (16) may have an angel face but he's No. 1 tough guy in NHL according to panel of legendary touchies: Ted Lindsay, Lou Fontinato, Wild Bill Ezinicki and John Ferguson. But beyond Clarke, this fearsome foursome had difficulties in naming others in today's NHL who rate the laurels of a tough guy.
