As an aside, Nathan Horton’s injury is really heartbreaking. “I can’t bend over. I can’t play with my kids. I can’t sleep at night."

poor guy.. feel bad for him

I read along interview with him a few months back. He's 100% done. Sad.

Whoever did this did well. I suspect that everybody had a part, but still... awesome day

New capologist probably had a hand in this.

Dunville isn't very close to Welland in terms of proximity or otherwise.

So Nonis essentially blows 35 million on nothing.... And gets to keep going?

Can't believe that Horton's contract wasn't insured???

Bad GM!!!
- jimmc7722

Probably had to do with signing him while being injured or coming off an injury. Nothing to do with the GM.

He could say the same thing about Marc Savard and Chris Pronger.

Hell, swing a 3 way trade if you have to.

Huge blow to his UFA street cred.

they're making back money off all the jerseys they re-sell that we throw on the ice.

Yup. Since the Pridham/Dubas/Shanny combo came together I don't think there's been a bad move. Just gotta keep it going....

Actually, he just spent $26.5 million for $5.25 million in cap space for each of the next 5 years.

Big companies don't like to waste money on.... Literally nothing

Nonis isnt the first GM to give out a ridiculous contract and keep his job...
