It really doesn't matter if Jarnkrok's return is a 3rd or 4th or whatever.
It's a question of the Leafs cap. Are they better running a short lineup with 2.1m Jarnkrok. or having let's say 800,000 Robertson and ensuring 1.1m Timmins is on the team. (I prefer the latter)
But Jarnkrok's 8 team no trade list is a big factor. He can easily put down eight team with cap that he can't be trade too. What other teams have the cap for him
Arizona, Ducks, San Jose, Jets, Habs, CBJ,, Flyers, Hawks Well that's eight.. He might be willing to be traded to the rising Sabres and Wings in the Atlantic conference.
Just saying even an 8 team No Trade makes an iffy trade at best.
