Komisarek is in the AHL because he is less likely to sustain a career ending injury, ala Pronger, playing there!
He can be bought out this summer if he doesn't get injured.
Komisarek is a much better option than Kostka, but, Leafs don't want him getting injured. That has to be the story, doesn't it?![]()
Well not only do the Leafs prefer Kostka over Komisarek, but 29 other teams passed on claiming Komisarek on waivers for free. Not so sure the same would be said for Kostka had he been placed on waivers.
So while Kostka is really on a depth NHLer at best to be used as a #6/7 dmen on most teams he is still considered among the Leafs best options available.
Its too bad Holzer was not able to hold that spot as I would prefer him over Kostka personally both now and for the future.
