At the draft

I herd Phaneuf is more likely to be in Edmonton than in torornto next season

So.

TOR: Jordan Eberle , 3rd overall

EDM: Dion Phaneuf , 8th overall , rights to James Reimer , 2015 4th round pick

RESULT for Toronto,

Leafs gets their 2nd line RW and the 3rd overall pick and they could draft Reinhart or Bennett who ever is available or Even take a long shot and draft draisaitl I believe any one of them could be a top line centre man in the NHL I would like to have draisaitl or Reinhart rather than Bennett


RESULT for Edmonton,

Gets a good top pairing defence man who needs a new start and where better than your home town 8th overall they can draft nick Richie Edmonton needs more grit and Richie could bring that and Reimer who definitely needs a new start and could fight out the number one job with scrivens or fasth

THOUGHTS?

Thats even worse than what the guy above you did.
Phaneuf, 8th, Reimer and 4th would prolly not even get you 3rd overall alone.
Oilers got Scrivens and Fasth, Reimer would not be an upgrade.
But you also get Eberle in that trade? c'mon and be 1% realistic

Personally I really don't see Edm giving up Eberle. They want to keep their core in tact while still gaining defensive help. As for Toronto, unfortunately for them I believe they are dealing from an area of weakness since teams know that after July 1 his no trade kicks in. So even though I believe Phaneuf has value, the Leafs will need to add a little to rid themselves of that contract

If anything it would be
Phaneuf, Gardiner, 8th, Prospect, 2nd-2015
for
3rd, Eberle

^If you really want Eberle AND 3rd overall, the Leafs 1st in 2015 HAS to be involved. As well as 8th overall
