This column is a joke--do your research. You cannot buy out an injured player per the terms in the CBA. Give it a Google, it's worth a Google. He's going to have to retire.
Michael, I feel really grateful for being able to take in a game in Tampa in 2010 after seeing so many games here at home with Ohlund in the lineup. It was that Memorial Day game where Owen Nolan scored a Bobby Orr-esque goal barely on one foot and was the best goal I've ever seen live.
This was a great tribute to a great guy and excellent d-man. I hope he makes it back at some point, but if not, even without a cup, he doesn't owe anything to the game and deserves a great retirement.
