At first, I was all like "whaaaa???"
And then, "huh?"
And now, "not too shabby."
Short term, CBJ add Gaborik and Comeau to the lineup while only losing Brassard. Feels like this team is better right now.
Longer term, Gaborik will be here at least one more year. The only real youth sacrificed is Moore, who I'll miss, but, as has been discussed, CBJ have honest to goodness depth among young dmen.
Dorse is replaceable.
Worst case to me is that Gaborik is ultimately a wash with Brassard in this next year+. I don't think that will be the case, but even if it is, that's a gamble I'd be willing to take. I wanted to keep Moore, but he isn't cracking the lineup now.
AND none of the 1sts have been traded.
