Sweet Deal for Lee Sweatt

So Lee Sweatt was about to be sent back down to the Manitoba Moose recently, but that very day he blocked a shot in practice (who blocks shots in practice??) and broke his foot. In other words, he could no longer be sent down because he's injured. The Canucks had to put him on injured reserve (which thankfully doesn't count against the cap) but for now, he's sitting around with a broken foot getting paid $650,000 instead of his AHL salary of $150,000. Lucky him. More than a coincidence? I hope not. Anyways, it's a sweet deal for Sweatt.
