I'm ok with this signing, but it makes the Klingberg signing look even worse than it did yesterday. Remember last year when Columbus signed Erik Gubranson for $4M AAV, then they went out and got Gaudreau? They had to dump Bjorkstrand to get under the cap after signing Gaudreau. If they hadn’t signed Gudbranson, they’d have been able to keep Bjorkstrand. Klingberg is Toronto’s Gudbranson. Somebody’s going to have to go, and it’s probably going to be somebody they needed more than Klingberg. I wonder if they would have signed him if they knew they were going to get Bertuzzi and Domi.
