Neither is CBJ. They wanted a body on the ice for their millions.

Jackets' David Clarkson ready to hit the reset button
COLUMBUS - Family, friends, fitness folks and the front office are all getting behind David Clarkson to make sure failure does not mark his second season with the Blue Jackets.
The team needs Clarkson to be as robust and rejuvenated as he looked and sounded Monday when the club had more than 20 regulars and farmhands show up for an informal workout at Nationwide Arena.
?It?s easy to have excuses, but you go back to work,? said Clarkson, who couldn?t hit the reset button fast enough after 2014-15. ?Everybody goes through tough times, tough days and tough years. From top to bottom, that was something I?ve never been through. Scratched, traded, injured and unable to come back again, trying to play ... it was just a nightmare.
?You do what you have to in life. I knew what I had to do, get back (to positive habits). That?s how you come out of it.?
With Clarkson's season with Columbus ruined by the early injury, Clarkson needed time to regroup.
Now 31 years old, he dedicated to having a productive summer with personal trainer Andy O?Brien, whose stable in Toronto and Calgary includes Sidney Crosby, many other NHLers and figure skater Patrick Chan.
?We go away and train by ourselves, which we?ve done the past six or seven years,? Clarkson said. ?I?m quite lucky to train around some elite players and that pushed me, too. I didn?t think I needed to do anything different (physically) than train with Andy.?
Clarkson also knew he?d be prominent in Jarmo Kek?l?inen?s appointment book once club GM had time to meet with prominent Blue Jackets players.
?He?s a better player than (last year?s results),? Kek?l?inen told the Columbus Dispatch in the spring. ?I expect a big improvement from him. Anything that could have gone wrong did go wrong, right from the start.?
Added Clarkson, ?Obviously there were a lot of tough breaks that went on for me, but at the end of the day, I feel great and I?m excited for what?s ahead. I?m just looking forward to getting this started.?

If I recall correctly, insurance covers 70% of a player's salary whenever that player incurs a long-term injury (so, like, anything that would require LTIR time, for instance). It might be a longer threshold than that, but it doesn't require a career ending injury to kick in.
Bullfrog said:Just a random thought, but I've almost forgotten Clarkson was even on the team. I only thought of him because I was thinking about who'd be on the fourth line and my thoughts were "Bodie would preferable over that other guy."
