Pre-Game Talk: SENS in PENS, tues 7:00 pm on TSN

[Micklebot]

Perhaps it’s a goaltender?????

I think Quick was pulled that game... maybe it was because of the trade!

 

[Filatov2Kovalev2Bonk]

Dreger (unreliable-ish)
Thompson + Phaneuf for Shore + Gaborik.

 

[solidprospect]

blockbuster

 

[albator71]

Gaborik and Shore coming our way!!!!

 

[Cosmix]

Phaneuf and Thompson for Gaborik and Shore. Sens retain 25% of Phaneuf salary

Hallelujah!

 

[Filatov2Kovalev2Bonk]

Holy cow we are retaining salary? Is this really the Ottawa Senators?

 

[albator71]

What do you think guys good trade?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

 

[Cloud]

and Melnyk retained salary?...absolutely no one saw that coming...

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Wow, so we get rid of a contract but retain a quarter of it, and take on another bad one? How exactly is this helpful?

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

I don't see why we'd retain on that deal. Thompson is a good player, and the Phaneuf/Gaborik contracts aren't that far apart.

 

[Xspyrit]

Phaneuf + Thompson

For

Gaborik + Shore

Done deal

 

[Cosmix]

Who will stabilize Cody.

Oduya!

Gaborik will probably be a lot easier to move...maybe even at the deadline.

 

[Aurilius]

Tank Commander Gaborik!

 

[pzeeman]

I don't see why we'd retain on that deal. Thompson is a good player, and the Phaneuf/Gaborik contracts aren't that far apart.

So in terms of cash, that’s 1.625 retained fir the next couple of years.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Shore looks like he's be right up our alley

2015-16	Los Angeles Kings	NHL	68	3	7	10	32	-10	1	0	0	0	0
2016-17	Los Angeles Kings	NHL	70	6	11	17	20	-2	--	--	--	--	--
2017-18	Los Angeles Kings	NHL	49	4	11	15	12	-4

[Micklebot]

so save about 4 mil over the duration of the Gaborik/Phaneuf contracts, and give away Thompson for Shore who is RFA at the end of the year.

 

[Cosmix]

Out with the old! Bring in the young!

 

[aragorn]

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.

 

[Micklebot]

Gaborik will probably be a lot easier to move...maybe even at the deadline.

If Gaborik were easy to move, LA would have moved him long ago...

 

[Micklebot]

Out with the old! Bring in the young!

Gaborik is like, three years older than Phaneuf.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Maybe the plan is to buyout Gaborik in the summer? His buyout isn't that bad

 

[Karl Prime]

Shore for Thompson is a great swap.

 

[chipsens]

Well that's 1 pylon gone...
