So how does he compare to Dalton Prout? A couple of years younger, a bit bigger, a high draft pick, both play on AHL teams, one makes lot more money.

I know we like to hack on ol’dim Jim and th Nucks, but this isn’t a bad signing at all.
No, it's not bad. It's downright atrocious. Gudbranson is a low-level bottom-paring talent defenseman who doesn't have the skill to live up to this contract.

It will be some miracle if this doesn't wind up as an albatross.

Gudbranson, Dim Jim & Vancouver is no good.

This cap hit & salary is about 2 or 2.5 mil too much for Gudbranson's skill level.

I don't believe Treliving is even remotely interested in trading any of his six defensemen before the playoffs.

He should be, Rasmus is a better option than the human icing machine.
