I was re-reading the Bobby Hull coffee table book and there was a pic of him bloodied, courtesy of John Ferguson. In the caption, Hull mentions some of the players assigned to "shadow" him; he respected Bob Nevin, Ed Westfall and Claude Provost, but not Ferguson or Bugsy Watson for their dirty play.
Who are some other players in history who functioned as shadows against star players? I sort of remember Jerry Butler of the Rangers having this role in the 70's but can't recall against who.
