A first for a soon to be 38 year old Craig Andersson?? I don't think it starts with a 1st. (Sounds like Filip Forsberg for Martin Erat, way too overpriced)


They get a serviceable goaltender with some potential. Gilles is still a good 25-year-old goaltender he just hasn't had his break yet.

Micheal Stone as a solid 28-year-old defender once he is healthy again, and he also has another year on his contract. Maybe it entices Mark Stone to stay in Ottawa as well.

And a 2nd/3rd based on Anderssons retained salary and performance for us the rest of the season.

These aren't just spare parts.
