Islanders tough guy Matt Martin found out the hard way that sometimes being bigger isn't always better after the Flyers' new guy, Ryan White, turned Martin's nose into a twisted, bloody mess Thursday night.
White, a veteran forward who recently was recalled from the AHL's Lehigh Valley Phantoms, made quite an impression during his fourth appearance with the Flyers — especially on Martin's schnoz.
The two players tussled for 35 seconds 2:22 into the first period of the Islanders' 3-2 shootout win at Wells Fargo Center before both headed to the locker room for medical attention.
Wearing a clear face shield, Martin returned for the start of the second period with his nose back in place.
