Ummm ok?

 

[Tuggy]

Really important to get that second year for Clifford.

Seeing as Kyle offered him 3 years at over 1 million the last time, and he was Dubas's first client this isn't surprising.

Clifford is a Dubas guy

waste of cap space haha

 

[Just a Fan]

I call this the Dubas Mrazek special….to long, and not needed….

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Because Dubas is loyal to his guys, and Clifford is a Dubas guy

At least this one can be fully buried

 

[Lahey]

WHY.

HE IS f***ING TRASH

 

[MMC]

2 years I’m assuming because it makes a team less likely to claim him on waivers?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

waste of cap space haha

It can be fully buried so no it's not

 

[Man Bear Pig]

He'll be in the minors as a vet leader. Not sure why anyone would be upset about it.

Calm down, it can be burried.

Most likely but he's not an NHL player at this point. There are better players on waivers seemingly every week.

 

[Knies iT]

They rave about his leadership and mentor ability on the Marlies so I’d assume he doesn’t see much NHL ice outside of a couple cameos.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

He'll be in the minors as a vet leader. Not sure why anyone would be upset about it.

It's the 2 years which admittedly doesn't seem needed

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Its not as if he's going to be stealing minutes away on the Marlies.

 

[Zonk]

Possibly a Rich Clune replacement on the Marlies?

 

[Vukotal Recall]

Ça sent la coupe

 

[kevsh]

Anyone asking why, would you even have noticed or cared if the Marlies signed a random AHL-level player to a 2-year deal? Because that's what this is.

 

[Lahey]

Calm down, it can be burried.

still.. what does he add? f*** all. don't care if he can be buried. just a useless transaction
