Toronto’s Wendel Clark and Quebec’s Mats Sundin were involved in a six-player blockbuster trade at the NHL draft Tuesday night.

Toronto sent Clark, Sylvain Lefebvre and Landon Wilson to the Nordiques for Sundin, Garth Butcher and Todd Warriner. In addition, the Maple Leafs acquired the Nordiques’ first-round draft pick--10th overall--for their first pick, the 22nd.

Toronto then sent the 10th pick to the Washington Capitals for center Mike Ridley and the 16th overall pick. The Nordiques also made another trade, sending Ron Sutter to the New York Islanders for Uwe Krupp.
