Whats the point of this? Phaneuf doesnt make the Kings any better, just more expensive and slower.

You'd think the Kings would have learned their lesson about Boat-Anchor Contracts by now that they would be absolutely desperate to not only refuse to acquire more of them but actively work at ridding themselves of the ones they already have.

Dion Phaneuf is like the League's 'Hot Potato' hes got a contract that nobody wants to touch.

Good Lord, just go and look at his stats sheet....it reads like a Horror novel.
