I guess since the Leafs traded Clarkson he's no longer overpaid.
Nonis said 5 teams called at the deadline. More will in the Summer.
You guys can call him crap, blah, blah, blah. He's a big time minutes muncher who has very good stats against the league's top players.
Oh yeah, and remember I said Letang wasn't a true #1? Pittsburgh is apparently looking to move him.
Nothing wrong with Dion for 7 million when guys like Orpik get 5.5 million+. Franson will get 5.5-6 million this summer.
