You could say its poetic justice for Gabby since he did turn down a big money deal from the Wild earlier. Think he's smart enough to regret it now? Kind of reminds me of Peter Klima, million dollar talent, 2-bit mind.
Yep the wild offered him a 10 year 80 million dollar contract. I just can't think any team will give him a long term deal and his next contract will be loaded with games played incentives. He bent the wild over but I think he bent himself over too.
