Bjugstad is pretty much useless, can not stay healthy and does not have any hockey sense. Been watching this guy for years and waiting but I hope Guerin is planning on using him at 4C for all of his 17 healthy games, terrible signing.

Good god. I hope the Wild do something soon that doesn't make me cringe. I am so sick of this being a retirement club for jack wagons that are in the "Prove that I'm still valuable" mode. How many god damn years are we going to do this!!!!?
There is a 0.01 percent chance that Bjugstad makes the team better. So much young talent and budding stars and they bring this cull into the mix, I am disgusted.

He's around 0.5ppg in a very limited role. I don't think there was much risk in this trade. He could rebound and potentially be flipped at the deadline.
I guess it all boils down to what the "conditional pick" is that Billy gave up... because it sounds like Pittsburgh is giving him up for half price just to get rid of him.
So if it's giving up some late round pick for a guy who may or may not help give the club a boost, then it's not like it's a great or terrible move either way. If he can stay healthy there is no doubt he will be of value, if not, not much lost for giving it a shot.
It's not like there's a ton of center talent out there to be got for any reasonable price.
Don't love it, don't hate it
