Habs send: thrower, emelin. To oilers for 2015 2nd. Then. Habs 2015 2nd, oilers 2015 2nd and gilbert leafs send phanuef to habs and retain 15% of contract to make it cap compliant

Thrower was a 2nd round pick 2 years ago and he is one of monteals top D prospects and Emelin could get a 2nd alone.

After thinking about your post I would remove thrower but they would need to move emelin and Gilbert to make room and the leafs would jump at a solid defensive d-man and a couple 2nd's to get out from that contract and emelin would be of great value to edm for a high 2nd rounder

Also by getting the leafs to pay 15% the habs would be paying phanuef like a 6 million dollar player,which is actually in the ballpark of what value he is

Considering phaneuf wouldn't get much pp time with the habs it wouldn't be worth there time to trade for him as gilbert is just as good defensively for a lot cheaper.

Hell no from Toronto much rather have phaneuf that crappy Gilbert and a low second rounder
