I don't know what kind of return I expected, but it certainly wasn't Gaborik.

Probably has more to do with one team tanking and the other fighting for their lives.

Cheap Melnyk strikes again?

This deal saves the Sens $4.7 million in cash minus whatever Shore re-signs for.

Strange deal money wise as no one benefits at all really.

Phaneuf is probably a better Dman now than Gaborik is a F.

So a bit of a win for LA I guess?

No idea what this does for the Sens.

Getting an odd duck out of the locker room?

Just looking over Gaborik's stats, he's been a disaster since 2012.

This seems awful for Ottawa? Retaining that much salary for that long? For what reason?

The Sens would rather pay Gaborik 16M (includes Phaneuf retention) over the next 3 years than Phaneuf 18.5M?

Doesn't make sense.

That's not going to save us, it's the PP system itself. When you have guys like Gaudreau, Monahan, Tkachuk with Giordano and Hamilton on defense there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to score. These guys can all put the puck in the net.
