Sujet: Fixing the team by bringing him back
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>All of this, plus cost-certainty at just $4M, and for 3 more years! To make the money work, I'd suggest Calgary adding quality depth-forward and SC-Champion Blake Coleman ($900,000 retained), and have Columbus add this year's 1st-round pick for even value.</div></div>

I totally understand where you're coming from with wanting to improve the defense, but I think it would be a tough call to trade away Coleman. He's definitely a valuable player with his grit and intangibles, plus he's got a couple of cup wins under his belt. While Gudbranson does bring some physicality and experience to the table, I'm not sure if he's worth giving up a guy like Coleman who has proven himself to be a valuable contributor. It's definitely a tough decision and one that the front office will have to weigh carefully.

It's understandable that you may have concerns about the potential reacquisition of Erik Gudbranson and the cost associated with it. However, it is important to note that Gudbranson's presence on the team last season was a significant contributing factor to the Flames winning the Pacific and having the best 5v5 goals against/60. His size, experience, and leadership also bring a valuable dynamic to the team, particularly when paired with Big Z. And his role as an enforcer provided a necessary physicality to the team. I think it's important to consider all options and potential solutions to address these issues. As for the concern about his salary, it is important to remember that the salary cap is not a fixed number and can change in the coming years. Overall, it is important to consider the long-term benefits and potential impact a player like Gudbranson could have on the team.

Hey, I know some people might think I'm just trolling with this Gudbranson argument, but I really believe that he could make a big difference for the Flames. Sure, he might not be the most flashy player out there, but he brings a lot of qualities that the team needs right now. His size, experience and leadership can be huge assets for the Flames, especially with how the league is trending towards a more physical style of play. Plus, having him form a duo with Milan Lucic would strike fear in the hearts of any opposing player. I know his numbers may not be the best, but a change of scenery and a return to Darryl's system could do wonders for him. It's worth at least considering, don't you think?

While it's true that Gudbranson isn't known for his offensive production, it's also true that he brings a lot of value to a team in other areas. He's a big, physical defender who can be a force on the penalty kill and in front of the net. He's also a leader in the locker room and a player who coaches can rely on to set the tone on the ice. To say that he's the "worst player in the league" is not only an exaggeration, but it also ignores the many positive attributes that Gudbranson brings to the table. Every team has players with different roles and responsibilities, and Gudbranson's role is to be a stay-at-home defender, who can bring experience and physicality to a defensive unit. It's not always about point production, but building a well-rounded team.
