Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)

[Cousin Strawberry]

Always makes sense to compare RFA and UFA contracts.

You're catching on.

Doyle look at what you just walked into!

Dude: here let me hold this testicle level branch out of the way for you...

Erik brought it.

Gudbranson could well be out of the league after this deal expires. If nothing else he will be playing for a massive haircut in pay if he does manage to stick around. The guy would have been a good player 25 years ago. Way too shitty of a skater and too dumb to succeed in today’s game.

Gudbranson wasn’t a shiney moment for Benning. But every GM has some of those. He rebounded well with ole Tanner.

After Dale dug his Talons into him and skullfucked him, Jim Ignitowski did the best he could.

And exactly how well did Dale do in that trade? To date

Uhhhhh.... he won it. Not by a landslide mind you as he dealt the high pick and dealt a solid young cost controlled forward in McCann. His big win was dumping an overpaid 6/7 d man on Elmer without retaining salary.

Not the impression I get

Well getting rid of Gudbranson’s contract is a decent win for any team when you aren’t taking salary back. Rutherford did well to ditch that millstone to Anaheim too.

You talk of the Gudbranson trade still like it was a major setback for us?

It was one of a group of dumb moves that certainly thinned out the potential prospect pipeline. It wasted cap space like those other moves when these types of players could be found for cheap on July 1 or on the waiver wire. I have zero interest in re-hashing this with you.

I can’t believe Rutherford got out from under that contract

I’m about as bothered by the Gudbranson trade as I am the Forsling trade. It’s like dropping a taco chip from a plate of nachos on the ground.
