    Clark Gillies, one of the metro areas greatest athletes passed yesterday at the age of 67.

    I'm not an Islanders fan but I got to see a lot of Gillies on the #1 line of the Islanders in the playoffs.

    Gordie Howe, Clarke Gillies, Mark Messier. The guys that were excellent scorers and also enforcers for the great players they played alongside.

    On a line with Mike bossy and Bryan trottier. That really shouldn’t be fair.
