Man, there's just something about Gudbranson.
I absolutely roasted the signing when it was announced, and if I remember correctly, called it the worst of all the Flames' moves last offseason.
I still think it's 100% fair to assume that Gudbranson had the best season of his career due to Sutter and will likely revert to being a very below average defenseman in Columbus, but the way he endeared himself to the C of Red and gave it his all both on and off the ice just makes me so happy to see him get that insanely ridiculous contract he got.
Guy just seems like the gentlest giant off the ice, while living up to his giant status on the ice and always protecting his teammates. Plus he's handsome as f*** and has a banging wife.
Man, there's just something about Gudbranson.
