This may sound dumb but if they moved MacDonald I would be interested in Phanuef. Ottawa needs to move him or possibly lose Methot or Cici in the expansion draft. I know he has 4 years left at 7mil but what if you cold get Ottawa to retain 50% and possibly take a contract like Read.

I think he could be a solid vet as your filtering in rookies on the back end and he can play some heavy minutes for you.

Again i would need to lose MacDonald first and the deal would have to be a win for me with Ottawa.

That's odd, usually it occurs annually on the 6th Friday of any month that has 3 X's in its name.

Good stuff Bill. I have no problem with AMac being on the roster in 17-18, I just don't like him on the top pairing. Would it not make more sense to pair Gudas with Provorov on the top pair and let AMac team with rookie Robert Hagg? It would also have the added bonus of allowing Provorov to play his natural side which should help him when he is constantly matching up against the oppositions best players.

I like that idea a lot with the exception of wondering who plays with Gostisbehere?

They get to protect players they actually want in Methot and Ceci. Maybe you add a player like Read who can fill in on their 3rd,4th line for a year as they have some FA's they lose.

BUt the big thing is they don't want to lose Ceci or Methot.

I'm not completely ruling it out either. Not likely, but i wouldn't say its that unlikely like some claim.

He can eat minutes, block shots, stay healthy and is controllable for a couple years. Not a sexy add but he checks a few boxes for a new franchise.

Agreed, I mean we have all said Amac is a serviceable bottom pairing guy, but he's just overpaid. But having an overpaid player for a new franchise that needs to hit a cap floor isn't the worst thing.
