It's crazy to think, but the current generation of Leafs fans will never have had the chance to see Captain Crunch play live. So we're bringing you a video tribute to one of the meanest Leafs ever, Wendel Clark. Clark game into the league swinging ,after being drafted first overall in the 1985 NHL entry draft by the Toronto Maple Leafs, by the end of his rookie season he had racked up 227 penalty minutes and had quickly built a reputation as a man to be feared. Clark himself showed no fear, despite being smaller than most enforcers Clark took on all comers, and the notches on his belt are a veritable who's who of hockey. Names  Craig Berube, Joey Kocur, Bob Probert, Dave Brown, Rick Tocchet, Mark Tinordi, Garth Butcher, Marty McSorley, Mike Peluso, John Kordic and Brad McCrimmon, and Clark dropped the gloves with all of them. It wasn't just his ability to fight that made Clark feared though, he was known for being able to change the momentum of a game with a single punishing hit. Don't believe it? Just Bruce Bell if he ever wakes up. We salute Wendel Clark with this video courtesy of "ReaganVans's channel"
