Phaneuf & Thompson for Gaborik & Shore. I don't see the point of this at all unless they save some money, but how much? Maybe Gaborik will help Ottawa score more goals but what exactly is the point of Shore? Maybe PD can turn this around & trade Gaborik & Shore to someone else. Not getting any younger with this deal.
Swapping Phaneuf for Gaborik saves us about 3 mil (I originally thought it would be around 4, but it's just over 3) over the next three seasons plus we unload 1.65 worth of Thompson next year.
Not sure what we do with Shore, he's RFA.
