Crash the Crease has an interesting piece looking back at Maple Leaf’s great Wendel Clark.

During his career Wendel played taller and heavier then he actually was and that took a toll on his body, he did everything in his power to protect his teammates and anything for his team to win. If he had to score a hat-trick he would, if he had to fight Bob Probert he would, if he had to take on a much bigger Marty McSorley who just dropped Doug Gilmour with an elbow he would and he would do it very well.

Though not a Leafs’ fan, I have very fond memories of watching Clark play.
