Meh he'll never be top six anymore I don't think. The potential was there when he WAS playing top six back on a crappy Leafs team, with top minutes and with Grabo and MacArthur but I think its long gone now.

Although its interesting to note Malkin things highly of him.

You don't think he can put up 20-30 points on the third line?

2-3 mil would be the going rate, and he can step up when GlupeQ gets hurt and compete.

The leafs pay Orr a Million to do nothing, Is Kulemin not worth atleast twice a Colton?

Honestly, you guys have convinced me and yes I'd pay Kulemin 3 mil MAX as he'll be playing better than Clarkson ever will. For that money, the Leafs should have signed Horton. What a big mistake.

Real Glucker.

And my post was 100% serious. It's exactly what he told me.

Horton would have been my target last UFA season.

But he wanted to go to a place less crazy about hockey than Boston.

Columbus was perfect for him.

They suck at hockey are not real good swimmers so they start a marginal sport they can be good at because nobody with athletic skills would ever consider it?

Incredible that the team can play .500 hockey for 11 games and not drop in the standings.

I wouldn't even mind if Clarkson was slightly overpaid but the guy is SUPREMELY overpaid. He's playing like a 2.5$ mil player MAX. Which means his salary is 200%+ of what he should be making.

I have always been twiztedmike around here. Sometimes atreides and sometimes 'razr' (which I loaned out recently). Those are my 3 accounts and I don't ever pretend to be another poster on this site. Its disrespectful. I've dropped the 'TypLeafsFan'-equivalent act that I used to do on razr a long time ago because it is disrespectful, too.

I guess Howard is stuck in the terrible snow storm that hits the easter part of the US.

RIP, Howard.

He's one of, if not the absolute worst contract signed last summer for sure.

well it depends where you are in the standings.
and actually i think Montreal was tied with Boston for first before they went on this slide so i think they have dropped.

According to EE 10-9-2. .500 hockey for 11 games and most of the western teams would be out of a playoff position.
