So I was killing time as a semi-drunk passenger on a 2 hour ride home tonight and came across this on HR:
Bobby Clarke Stats | Hockey-Reference.com
Clarke won the Masterton in '72, but it does not look like he missed significant time prior. Nowadays, the Masterton tends to be "came back from a serious injury/cancer/personal tragedy" - was it the same then? It just seems odd that a third year player without any serious injuries prior get that trophy. I was wondering if anyone had any insight.
