As guys you used to watch play leave this existence seemingly every week it makes me wish there was a hockey equivalent of Ritter's "The Glory Of Their Times" to have on the reading table.

Great card of a great player.
Thanks, Al.

I missed the tribute to Clark last night prior to the Leaf's/Isle's game and I'm pissed at myself for that.
Hopefully I can find it somewhere today on youtube or where ever?
