And did I mention that Bob Clarke is an idiot?

Bruce Dowbiggin of the Calgary Herald lists his all-time favorite memories of the gap-toothed bully from the Flon:

1. Brought convicted felon and union crook Alan Eagleson into his team's dressing room AFTER Eagleson got out of jail.
2. As NHLPA president, he depressed salaries for his union brothers by secretly taking benefits on the side, thereby reducing his contract number.
3. Blamed Roger Neilson for getting cancer. Blamed Eric Lindros for having a collapsed lung.
4. Named Lindros Olympic team captain in 1998 while he also had Wayne Gretzky, Steve Yzerman and Ray Bourque on the team.
5. Thought Chris Gratton was the next Mark Messier and signed him to a five-year, $16.5-million deal.

My own favorite was trading away Peter Forsberg and a whole lot else while "winning" the Lindros sweepstakes over the Rangers, but I'm looking for others.
