Brady Tkachuk a former 4th overall draft pick to the Ottawa Senators was selected to play in the 2022 NHL All-star game last weekend where he got to "pick the brain" of his childhood idol. Tkachuk who is known for his skill and physicality is someone who can beat you with a goal, or beat you with a fist, much like his apparent idol, Tom Wilson.
Tkachuk being a 1999 birth year, and Wilson a 1994, Tkachuk had a few years to watch Wilson grind his way into being a top line player capable of 20 goals, 40 points and an impressive 100+ penalty minute seasons while working his way from being a 4th line fighter to becoming a 1st line star on the Washington Capitals and 2022 All-star where he scored the first goal of the tournament for the Metro division.
Even though Wilson was Tkachuk's idol, that didn't stop him from getting his shots in on Wilson whenever he can, check out the video below.
