He is going to be fun to watch when Torts lets him go.
No doubt in my mind Gaborik is a top 10 talent in the NHL and well worth the risk.

I disagree, I'm not a fan of the signing. Gaborik is way too injury prone, and is not a top 10 talent. I'd say top 25, but you can't pay a top 25 guy top 10 money for 5 years, especially when you'll be lucky if he plays 70% of your games in that span.
