Let's get serious here, Toronto and Ottawa will not be trading Phaneuf or Spezza within their conference let alone their immediate rivals.

Phaneuf is also a very big personality to bring into any dressing room.


In addition to a ridiculous contract extension that will be a total albatross in the future.

Spezza just moved in a street down from me in Etobicoke. Ran into him and the wife yesterday on a stroll with their two young kids and another on the way. The guy absolutely loves it here in Toronto and one could argue he could benefit from a change of scenery. I would happily give him a shot on the 1st line and he would be an immediate upgrade depth-wise for our top 6...who knows how he would handle the added pressure here though..

Phaneuf I would trade to the Jets for Byfuglien straight up no questions asked.

why would they trade Phaneuf after just signing him, the coach and GM are the same two goofs, who all of a sudden does not like him or see him as part of the team?

I see a trade with SJ as a real possibility. They are in a win now mode and have a need on D now that Boyal is to old. I dont think they have a major piece back to us though off there roster....I could see a Dion(nothing retained) for Havlat(cap dump),
Muller, Tierney and there 1st we may need to add a later pick also or even Riemer....These prospects are ready to try to make the NHL but have 0% chance to with SJ based on there current roster and players like Hertl that made the jump.

And Phaneuf is a complete knucklehead. Why would anyone want to take him on?

Even after chewing $1M/year for 7 years? How about at $1.5/year for 7 years?

the leafs would have to overpay to get a good return, only other option is give him away for a nothing and still retain salary

Ah, I was wondering...well, I am not sure about overpaying...8th overall this year will be good, but not likely a top flight talent...Kane is quite a bit better than Phaneuf and I don't see the $1M/year being a big deal for the leafs if they can get Kane...my thinking is that it was pretty fair...although I think better fits for Pheneuf are out there...
