Keith cant re-sign with Edmonton, thats cap circumvention

What you're proposing is cup circumvention which is forbidden per the new CBA, You can't trade a player who is than boughtout and resign them. You'd need to wait one calendar year. And Anaheim passes not enough quality going back in the Gibson trade.

Believe that’s only if he was bought out by Edmonton no? Believe Brooks Orpik did the same thing with Washington when he was traded to Colorado then was bought out by Colorado and re-signed in Washington the same offseason

Why Would he go back to edmonton, he could get more cash somewhere else or maybe Winnipeg where he's from. Gibson probably isn't the amswer.

Doesn't matter, it's called cap circumvention anyway you look at it. And the new CBA forbids it.

Ya they fixed that loophole thankfully. It would get out of hand if that was allowed.

A no from Anaheim, if we’re going to trade Gibson I hope we get a lot more than this

Only for a compliance buyout, which isn’t available option here.
