Either Gudbranson plays on the 3rd pairing and takes minutes away from two of Valimaki, Mackey, or Kylington or he sits in the press box at a $2 million cap hit. I usually try and see the positive in every move, but why?

Unless we're moving another D in a trade, looks like Tre gave up on making a trade to change the forward group and decided to piss away our cap space for the sake of it.

edit: Just saw the Stone re-signing. Maybe we are moving another D? Andersson maybe?
