Sounds interesting, but that's all it is...interesting.
Consider: Assuming Clarke has little "management skill," is it reasonable to think that he, or his staff, could concoct such a conspiracy, then execute it?
And, obviously, the intentional injury of ANY player, not to mention a marquee player in your OWN organization, on the part of management is just silly. If Clarke really wants Lindros out (which, itself, is believeable), wouldn't it be more convenient, and profitable, to simple keep Lindros out of the lineup under "medical reasons" (to save his health and not screw up team chemistry), and then simply trade, or even release, Lindros at the end of the season?
