Confirmed Trade: [OTT/LA] Phaneuf (25% Retained) + Thompson for Gaborik + Shore

[PensandCaps]

As a Kings supporter. I hope not.

Why wouldn’t the Kings pull Gaborik from the game if he’s part of a deal?

Sens probably don't care about him, and would probably prefer paying LTIR.

Please please please be Pearson

No idea, but what other cap hit would the Kings be sending back for Phaneuf?

 

[PorkFlavoredTobacco]

On again for the last shift of the game.

 

[Little Psycho]

LA, baby, what is you doin'.

We free fallin bro

 

[goosh]

Gaborik is the only thing that makes sense.

 

[Shaffer]

LA, baby, what is you doin'.

I was your 2,000 like

Probably just a 2nd.

 

[Warden of the North]

I am shocked that anyone would want that contract

Sorry, Kings fans. Congrats Sens fans.

If he gets hurt they can LTIR him and then they don't have to take Phaneuf lol.

 

[PorkFlavoredTobacco]

Gaborik survived. Not sure why he played so many shifts in a blowout if he’s the guy.

 

[Legend123]

why would any team want anything to do with that trash contract??

 

[SFKingshomer]

3 more years at 7 per lol Blake is an idiot

If the games almost over, no real need. Just send a runner to tell the coach not to play the guy? Has he played a shift?

 

[terrible dee]

Question...why would the Sens have any use for Gaborik? Especially if they are retaining a large amount of Dion's salary?

 

[Legend123]

but plz get tha trade done OTT. We need some trades and some market value implosion

 

[Do Make Say Think]

How does Gaborik help Ottawa...

I guess he is cheaper?

 

[OmniSens]

Nothing bad to say about Phaneuf. Great guy, solid player during his time here. He just didn't live up to his contract (as expected) and a young player would benefit with his ice time.

Best of luck Dion!

 

[RottenScoundrel]

Pens announcers are confirming these reports. Apparently, Phil Kessel also confirmed to Bob Errey. How Kessel would know is beyond me?

 

[MackAttack26]

I'm guessing in a Gaborik-Phaneuf deal there would be another pick and/or prospect heading to Ottawa?

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Heh Kings

[Little Psycho]

Dean Lombardi's ghost quickly came in to pull this trade and dissapeared

 

[SlimCharles]

Hopefully Gaborik is included.
