But looking at Gudbranson's career — he's the definition of a one-year wonder.

But for now, that deal is an anchor and one of the very worst in the NHL. I don't think Columbus would be able to move it for free.

I agree with your assessment of Gudbranson's career.
I would trade $12 million of cap and real money for two Columbus first round picks. Getting Gudbranson for 3 years on top of it would just be icing on the cake.
