don't understand what?
Upon reflection, seems like a move to pick up a draft pick at the deadline and provide depth upon event of injury, that's fine. I actually think Gaudreau will play his way onto the roster anyway, so no big deal. Bennett is going to get sent down.
But next season, the one following this one, if Calgary ends up picking up a McDavid or Eichel who may be NHL ready right out of the draft, then with Bennett probably ready to go after a year back in the minors (at least for the A), I'm not sure I want to see a bunch of Setoguchi signings.
And for the love of god stop referring to him as "gooch".
