You're right. Although I think, in regards to Engellend, McPhee would be better suited to trade Future Considerations (AKA trade me Engellend and I'll give you an "extra" protection slot) for his rights once the Flames season is over. They should try to get Engellend early... I think he could be an asset to them in free agency selling other vets on the benefits of actually living in Vegas.
