File Glencross under the category of, “useful player who somehow couldn’t get a contract” this summer.
Isn’t it funny how timing and circumstance works? Take a glance at Glencross’ career production, then one at David Clarkson’s, and wonder to yourself how one ends up at camp on a PTO while the other enters his third season on a seven year, $36 million deal.
Glencross has been a regular 40+ point scorer throughout his career, breaking 25 goals twice with Calgary in 2010-11 & 2011-12. He’s coming off a four-year, $2.55 million deal that expired at age 32.
