“The other thing that we’re keeping an eye on around Toronto is David Kampf. You know, he’s been suspended because he’s just not playing. He’s made it clear he doesn’t want to play in the American Hockey League anymore.
We’ve talked about the possibility of contract termination. I have heard one of the issues there is, that he received a signing bonus this year. So there’s been a bit of a conversation about, if the contract gets terminated, should he have to return some of the signing bonus?
And I sense that the league and the Players Association are involved in this part of the conversation, and you can guess which side either one of those is on. So the hope is that it’s going to be sorted out by Monday. But I did hear the idea about should he have to return a chunk of the signing bonus was one of the things that prolonged this.”
