Jenner would never move to move Clarkson. Probably one of the most untouchable players on CBJ behind Murray and Jones.

While this might be true, keep in mind that Hawks fans would have sworn up and down that Teravainen would never move to move Bickell... until it happened. In a lesser example, Crouse and Bolland. Cap crunch situations and the pending expansion draft have a tendency to make the unfathomable possible.
Am I right to say that his NMC is still in effect, so even if you can LTIR him in perpetuity to avoid the cap problem in-season, not moving him does mean one less (relevant) player protected in the expansion draft next summer?
(this assumes he would waive to move - perhaps to specific locations only - but not to expansion.)

Boone Jenner is about as untouchable as they come. No way would Columbus trade him. And Jenner would never be moved to move Clarkson's contract not when they can just keep him on LTIR.

Bickell's contract also has one year left.
They are perfectly comparable situations.
Enjoy having Clarkson - only way you get rid of him is by moving one of, if not your best, prospect/young player
This deal would look more like
Jenner
Clarkson
for
2018 6th round pick
And then maybw NJ takes it

Actually yes he is. He's been out with a back injury for months and as of last update still isn't feeling any better.

He's had chronic back issues which kept him out most of last season. Similar to Nathan Horton.
If he spends this coming season on LTIR, he will be exempt from the expansion draft like Pronger.
Dont worry bud, he will be back
You have to be severely injured for LTIR. And Clarkson is not that
In fact, if Clarkson was placed on LTIR for 'back issues' (which has been reported once last year) I wouldnt doubt if the NHL didnt allow them to do that. Blatant attempt to hide cap and violate LTIR rules
Man, you are so clueless. I've never seen so many
posts by one person on one page of a thread.Man, you are so clueless. I've never seen so many
'So clueless' yet you folks think a 'back problem' gets you on LTIR longer than a few months
Bryce Salvador being put on LTIR was a problem and the guy was never going to return. Yet folks think Clarkson easily hits LTIR for something that just came about last year and has had almost a year to recover from.
Get real - Columbus isnt getting off of his cap that easy

They're not "getting off of his cap."
If he can't play, then they put him on LTIR. I don't understand why you are making this a big deal.
