Their position, as far as I know:
• They have one or more players who are due to come off LTIR before the end of the regular season, and have to make cap room.
• They thought they made that room, or some of it, by trading Dadonov.
• The Dadonov trade is void, and the trade deadline has gone by. They don't get a do-over.
• If they don't reduce their cap number soon, they'll be in open violation of the LTIR rules, not the nudge-nudge-wink-wink situation some teams have got away with in the past.
• Nobody owes them any favours, except maybe whatever file clerk in Ottawa didn't forward Dadonov's NTC list along with the rest of his papers.
To me, it looks like George McPhee and Kelly McCrimmon are due to take up residence at the Rosebud Motel in Schitt's Creek. No paddles required.
