Yes, absolutely.
Some feel "POINTS" is the only measure of a player, but he was and will also be a believed a Leaf Icon and beloved Leaf.
He hit, he fought for his teammates, he bleed blue and white.. He was captain, and he scored goals with the best of them. Leafs all-time playoff goals leader (34 goals in 79 playoff games). He was the only other Leaf drafted #1 overall like Matthews and adopted by the fan base as a self drafted and developed player.
In 1992-93 as Leafs went to the final 4 in 21 playoff games he scored 10 goals 10 assists and 20 points and finished just outside the top 5 in playoff scoring leaders.
In 1993-94 he scored 46 goals & 76 points in 64 regular season games to lead the Leafs to the playoffs and then in 18 games 9-7-16 points.
Those that got the privilege to cheer on Wendel will never forget how much impact he had on Leafs legacy and him being honoured for his service is 100% worthy.
