Feel like we dodged a bullet here. I had no interest in Gilbert.

Gilbert is better than most think, but I don't think he's worth that much.

Gilbert has great advanced stats, he's a decent pickup.

$2.8 for d-man is pretty minimal, I would have done it.

I think he's easily worth that. That's basically "good third pairing guy" money. Gilbert played #2 for much of last year to Campbell. Gorges is now no loss at all.

Glad he didn't go to the Flames. Another dummy like Butler.

Thank you for not signing Gilbert. Would rather have Wotherspoon any day.
