I still disagree with him not wanting to go to Quebec - he should have, and imagine the team! However, that's about all I have disagreed with him about. I still feel bad about how terrible he was treated.


There is no way he is a trash person. Controlling parents? Sure. However, it was Clarke that was an absolute trash human being.
It wasn't just his parents dude, I won't bother to share in an open forum but I personally saw what an idiot off the ice he was and many if not most of his own teammates couldn't stand him.

The only thing he was good for was his ability to play hockey.
