    Clarkson is fine, his contract isn't. They can't buy him out because of the fact that most of his money comes from signing bonuses, so it would barely affect the annual salary he receives, and so it wouldn't change the cap at all, so they'd be pretty much be paying 5.25 mill for a guy to play or 5 mill for him not to. Bad trade by Jarmo Kelky, good trade for Dave nonis and the Leafs (tho nonis sucks for giving him this garbage god-awful contract in the first place)

    We really don't know what he is... other than a money drain. Maybe he will be too fragile to play and will require the LTIR option.
    Japjeet is right. Who signs an undrafted player with limited stats in the prior 3 years to a contract like that??? Maybe Clarkson was dating his daughter and he wanted to set him up financially for life. Who knows.

    Regarding Clarkson's contract with the Leafs. On I believe TSN, Dave Poulin one of the Leafs execs at the time gave the justification for signing Clarkson. He said they wanted Clarkson for his "leadership" and thinking he would be be a good 3rd line winger. Same with the trade for Bolland. Poulin never suggested he (they) were wrong in their thinking. Guess that's why he's a talking head instead of NHL management exec. Can't believe that NHL execs still fumble the salary cap regularly.
