At a certain point, you can only push hip injuries so far. I've fortunately only had temporary ones, but they are brutal. Extreme pain when getting in and out of chairs, being unable to shift your body when your laying down without extreme pain, an inability to walk without assistance, etc... much worse than injuring your knee, ankle, etc... or probably even your back.

I think any of these teams could pull it off. Tough to gauge what he would return. Huge contract and the amount of injuries he’s been having is concerning. But at the top of his game he is probably a top 10 player in the league.

Anaheim: McTavish + 1st + McQueen
LA: Clarke + 1st + Byfield
Utah: Iginla + 1st + 2nd

Seeing Iginla play for Toronto would really bother me.

As always, an important consideration is how many teams Matthews would be open to going to.

The other two are possible, but I can't imagine he's limiting himself to those three. Which is why I think it's BS.

All of these are overpays. Toronto fans better start tempering their expectation, now.
