Yeah, don't buy Gaborik out. There's no reason to. Who are you getting for the less than $4m in cap space? Probably nobody that will score more than the 12 goals Gaborik gets. That, plus the $6m in dead cap space over 2 years? Plus 4 more years of dead space after that?
Keep Gaborik, hope he bounces back with a coach that I guess he likes enough to try for.
Another reason not to buy anyone out is because the CBA can be cancelled by either following the 20-21 season. I know the players hate escrow, so I wouldn't be surprised if they did.
You never know what kind of contract relieving perks may come out of those negotiations.
