Easy no from Chicago

Why would we pay for that contract. That’s a first round pick going to chicago to take that terrible contract

Send Gud to BUF. They want a RD and have cap space. Not sure they specifically want Gud, but they're more likely to work something out with CBJ than CHI.

Not good enough for a wild card spot. Bertuzzi wont sign in Columbus especially at that amount since he wants 7 mil

Goaltending is still bad

No elite center (not yet) they’re all developing

Adding provorov and severson isn’t enough to make a bottom 3 team jump 14 spots in the standings

You're forgetting the addition of Werenski, and further development from Kent Johnson who's pretty awesome.

Bertuzzi wants $7M but he's not getting that. And he likes his privacy, so Columbus makes sense. Plus he knows Babcock.

Not seeing them competing well enough with Babcock at the helm.
Also there’s no way Chicago does that, or any team. Gubranson is a negative value asset, and CBJ will need to pay to move him
