sometimes,


side note, I stopped and grabbed a 6 on the way to wash this trade down, and its going down smooth

I'm fighting a (frank)er of a flu and even I cracked open a beer...

Tough to find a better example of both teams winning a trade. We didn't fleece Columbus. Clarkson is an NHL player and they were paying for nothing anyway. I actually wouldn't be surprised to see him make decent contribution. He still won't be worth the contract, but even still both teams come out ahead.
- Aetherial

Agreed... But who cares about the other team, the leafs rid themselves of a boat anchor.

I thought Clarkson was untouchable.
- SPIDEROCKSTAR

Untradeable.





Or not, for $26m

Somebody lay this one down for me.


Horton, who is perma-hurt. Signed for the same length, 500k more. What is the idea behind this deal? Is he hurt hurt as in, maybe they are gambling it's a career ender?
- weirdoh

cap space cost about 26m..

Yup. It's something out of nothing for Columbus. They don't care about cap space …they care about $$ and getting something in return. They win too.

It's only been like 12mins, but this is by far clarksons best game as a leaf so far.

nice
- PinkSock

I'll pay for it tomorrow...

when hes on his game he fits right into CBJ style of play
- PinkSock

Toronto plays the same style I thought. Hopefully a change of scenery to a place where the fans and media don't have unrealistic expectations will be good for him. Columbus certainly could use a boost. Their forwards are awful, led by $6 plus million a season for Dubinsky.

Really? It's that bad with his injury? Can we finally say the Leafs did something great? Or does that make me a homer?

MLSE wont ever share any profits with me so Im almost happy, looks good on em

called Cap circumvention bros, embrace it and love it, unless you care that MSLE is gonna be down like 25 Mill...but its a nice cap play for sure, id be surprised there isnt some sort of investigation
- PinkSock

I cannot think of any possible reason to investigate. This is all above board. The rules are the rules.

one of the only perks of being a Leaf fan is the wheel barrows of money in profit they make, might as well use it somehow

Nonis: ''Sometimes players don't fit in a certain city" in reference to Clarkson.

What a (frank)ing idiot.

maybe a looky loo into the rules and make a tweak into it? something has to come from it/






if not lets do it again

I see Luke's scratched again. Kind of sad.

About (frank)ing time it came in handy

Oh

I was wondering if anyone was gonna post it

fido said it was good for the Leafs so it must have been (frank)ing monumentally great.

Article on Horton's injury:

Horton, who signed a seven-year, $37.1 million free-agent contract with the Blue Jackets in the summer of 2013, has been diagnosed with “degeneration” of the entire lumbar region of his spine, or the lower back, sources told The Dispatch.

So, he can't run, barely walks, can't sleep, and it's degenerating.....his NHL career is over.
