Revisiting the Canucks' Gudbranson-McCann Swap, 10 Years Later

This is one of those old trades that never really leaves a fan base alone.

Trade trees have a way of exposing how one move can ripple for years through a roster and a prospect pipeline. Vancouver’s history book is full of examples like this, and this one still has enough sting to make people wince.
