Wendel Clark night not enough

It was cool to see Wendel Clark honoured by Leafs Nation. Not so many modern day Leafs left worthy of the distinction. No cup. Not even a conference championship.  But Wendel played with sufficient heart to warrant seeing his number rise amongst Leaf greats.

And hey, don’t get me wrong. I loved having Gilmour in Toronto as much as anyone but I don’t even think his number should go up.

If you love what’s happening with the Chicago Blackhawks these days then it wasn’t much of a surprise that the rebuilding they’re doing in the Windy City (something Ron Wilson is trying to do here) bit us squarely on the tail last night. they’re a fast team with no quit in them. They deserved the extra point, and we didn’t. Plain and simple. At least we squeezed a point out of a western conference opponent – better than nothing I suppose.

So Dougie’s number goes up next.  The Thrashers are on deck and we head up to play the lowly Sens this week in Ottawa and take on the Flyers at home before heading out on another Western road swing, this time in the states.

GO LEAFS GO!!!
