Chris Johnston also provided some insight into the situation when he said the following during his appearance on the latest episode of Leafs Report:
Zitat“The John Klingberg situation is tough. He has tried to play through his injury, it’s not to say he won’t continue to but obviously the results haven’t been good. He can’t move as well on the ice as he once did when he had his best seasons, he doesn’t have a lot of security in terms of just being on a one-year deal with Toronto. Apparently his issues were made even worse by being on a couple of long flights heading over to Sweden and back. So I don’t know where that one ends up. I think you have a player there that is very proud, he gave an emotional scrum while we were in Stockholm just talking about how he just so badly wants to play again and get to a spot where he can do that. I don’t know if he is going to be able to, to me that is the big question and depending if he can or can’t then I think the decision flows from there. If can’t, he is probably going to be on long-term injured reserve and might free up some cap space for the Leafs to look into some other things.”
hört sich sehr nach dem nächsten auf lti an.
