I'm really interested in how this shakes out and what the actual compensation ends up being.

If it's a 2nd round pick I have to question the thought process here.
It seems Gustafsson is a better offensive player based on the last couple years for both guys. But moreover, if Brodie walks, it's not $4.9M walking out the door. It's something like $6-6.5M in all likelihood.

If Gustafsson improves the power play for this season it's a real plus IMO.
