Maybe he's overpaid, maybe he's even our fourth-best LD, but he's an NHL player.
Historically Gudbranson has... not been at least that.
Well, yes and no. His current aav sets his qualifying offer pretty high, so the Flames will probably have to not qualify him, in which case we threw another 3rd away if he can't at least show one team he is worth his QO.

How is it throwing away a 3rd round pick if the guy plays a year in the top four when the team (Sutter/Treliving) felt they needed him?
