Ottawa just asked Dion Phaneuf to waive his. He said no. They're now stuck with a player who they asked if they could get rid of. A little awkward of a situation. And yes, the Leafs could offer them up to a real contender, and perhaps should. But the contenders are going to know there's only so much competition. Just look at Kessel. Pittsburgh knew they didn't have to pay full cost. They gave up less and let Toronto eat salary. It wouldn't be any different for Bozak or JVR.
no, they asked Dion to waive his no movement clause , big difference, they can still trade Dion.
as for kessel, i would argue no one wanted him with his 8m contract.
thats not a issue with our 2, both have fine contracts unlike kessel/dion.
