Original Toronto Star caption: Clear the track, here comes Wendel! The rugged Toronto Maple Leafs winger, out of the lineup since Nov. 9 with a back injury, says he'll be back for the team's game against Buffalo Saturday night. Clark's scoring touch, aggressiveness and leadership will be a big boost, if he's able to return to his old form.
