Horton will never play again. Like Pronger. But they can't be forced to retire.

The league can't do anything about it. Leafs are using that loophole the same way the flyers do. Why does it make you so mad?

#CBJ GM Jarmo Kekalainen on newly acquired David Clarkson: "He plays our way. Gritty, hard. He's a heart-and-soul player, a net-front guy."

You watch him start banging in 30 a year again.

Who gives a (frank). We will never trade Clarkson

the leafs are rebuilding. That extra $5 million of cap space won't matter in the next few years anyway. But it allows the to take on bad contracts in exchange of draft picks.

We just saved 5.25 for 5 more seasons. It will matter

I wonder who called who on this trade...lol

It means we can take another poopty contract or two to help bail another team out. Don't be surprised if the Leafs pick up Bollig or Richards plus prospects.

Is that official he will never play again? Or best guess?

Nonis for mvp.

Leafs got hosed in that trade.

*Whooptash

I'm so happy right now. The only think that would make me happier is to see us get a 1st round pick and a 3rd round pick for Bozak.

One thing I will say about Pecafan is he is not a troll. He talks hockey.

And.. Holy poop!!!!! Only thing better is Phaneuf being gone.

Nonis for mvp.
- systemtool

now hurry up and fire him before he (frank)s something else up

Now the Leafs can take a poop contract back in a Kessel/Phaneuf/Lupul deal in order get more in return.... Very smart move by the Leafs.

You are trying to downplay one of the shrewdest moves in hockey in recent memory...... won't work bud.
- Mr_Smokey

i think he is saying it's smart. he says what actually happened IMO...the cap space doesn't matter in that we'll stink..but we can take on bad players with assets to help teams get their cap in order.

at least that's what i got

Huge cap maneuver for TOR. They lose Clarkson's contract entirely, must pay Horton to not play but get to use Horton's cap dollars elsewhere

Traded probably the only guy that wanted to play in this joke. This team can pretty much forget about free agents.

Nonis for mvp.

I'm kidding, don't worry. We're on good terms... I think

when we're finally contenders?

Good trade for Nathan too... can move back home to Welland.

Kinda funny he just bought a house in Columbus and the inlaws sold their home in Welland and moved to Columbus... time to move back...

Should have kept the house!!!

Dave Nonis....

mad? Im delighted. We just got rid of our scott gomez.
anyone who sees this as anything but a steal for a team like the leafs who are flush with cash, are just trolling

Good, I'm tired of overpaying them.

I can't believe a team that just traded for a player that probably will never play again won the trade but.... They did.

Degenerative back injury or something. Keyword: degenerative. He probably hopes that he'll be back one day...
