This.
Cammalleri was hopefully the last. Time to turn a fresh page.
I really don't think Phaneuf has changed much since leaving Calgary... no more than say, Bouwmeester has from 09 - now. He may as well wear a blindfold when he winds up a slapshot. Skating never was the same after that hip(?) injury. No hockey sense and still runs around in his own end. For the first time since the trade Toronto fans are turning on the guy and it's for the exact same reasons he soured on Flames fans.
No need to bring up the TMZ garbage anymore. The guy just shouldn't be used as a #1 defender and cap space or not we're not the right fit. A team like the Preds or the Wild could use him I'm sure.
