Westgarth does not make McGrattan expendable. Look at Burke in Toronto in how he added legitimate heavyweights. McGrattan is the perfect example of the type of enforcer Burke loves - really tough but aren't a liability on the ice or to the team for taking bad penalties.

Westgarth is here to add to that. Hartley loves enforcers as well. I just have no idea what that 4th line is going to look like now. Bouma sits? Byron gets sent down?

Also, there is some cap savings for the Canes. Westgarth doesn't have a 2-way, and has only played 12 games thus far this season.
