I could be wrong, but I think he is referring to the fact that Horton is injury prone and always injured and has had re-occurring injuries, where Clarkson has no injury prone type injury. Of course, any hockey player can get injured, it's more I guess if they are the injury prone types like Bolland and Lupul to name a few.

Yeah Clarkson would have the same injury concerns as like, Rick Nash or something. There'd be no issue securing insurance for him. Horton would stick out.

I remember The Isles ran out of insurance options with Rick DiPietro at one point.

Okay. I think insurance companies probably look at the type of player, not just the injury history. A grinder like Clarkson probably has higher risk than a skill player who doesn't hit much. Although, maybe they look at the skill player as being a target. I'll bet insurance firms have algorithms worked out for premiums of various players. If not, I'm available to help figure them out. (I'd have as much experience at it as anyone else, right?)

DiPietro's contract was insured in 5 year stints, not the full 15 years.
