And then they sign Bozak and Clarkson. At least Bozak's contract was just bad, but not insanely bad. Clarkson's deal is pure lunacy. One 40 point season on his resume and they pay him more, and for more years, than Grabovski. LOL
Folks, it's time to accept reality. These knuckleheads are going to go with Bozak, Kadri, Bolland, and McClement up the middle. There was no magic plan behind the Grabo buyout, other than to waste that money on an inferior player like Clarkson.
I have no proof, but I honestly think Carlyle was influential in the Grabovski buyout and that Kessels connection with Bozak put urgency on resigning him. Both of these made a perfect storm of sorts that essentially saw us downgrading at C.
No comment on the Clarkson deal because I would have been OK with it had we not colossally f-d up everywhere else.
