Tonight the Toronto Maple Leafs play their 11th elimination game in their last seven series — the previous 10 games which they have all lost. Heck, even my 33-year-old VW has been better in the clutch.

  1. In the Auston Matthews-Mitch Marner era, it's only six first-round exits in a row, and 0 for 9 in elimination games.

  2. Amazing numbers! (Loved all 4 of my old VW beetles!)

  3. I don't know about the Leafs, but I had a Beetle in the 60's that I didn't have to use the clutch.

    1. VW had a semi-automatic shift in the late 60s where you didn't have to use the clutch but still had to shift by engaging a switch on top of the gear shift knob which allowed the driver to shift w/out using a clutch.
      Chrysler used a similar system as recently as 2000 in their vans.
