OTT: '18 1st, Sexton (even out contract #)
VGK: Neal, '18 7th

Neal - Turris - Stone
Hoffman - Brassard - Ryan
Dzingel - Pageau - Burrows
Pyatt - Thompson - Smith

Sens need another top 6 player that can help on the PP

Vegas gets a mid-to-late 1st

Because he's greedy.

They'd be over the cap. They only have 5.25 million bud.

I like the trade but i think sens would have to throw in claesson or Wideman for vgk to let go of their top player.

Ottawa: 18-1st Claesson and lajoie

VGK: Neal 19-3rd.

And thehabsguy . Idk man. just basing it off of the Brassard trade kind of. The mindset of "Maybe the seventh can turn out better than the first". not my words. they're Dorions. lol.

Even still I can't see the sens giving up their 1st for a rental player that costs 5 million when they only have 5.25 million to work with.

Maybe straight up Neal for Phaneuf work work better for both teams ottawa ditches Phaneuf remaining 3 years while Nashville solves a contract dispute and can go back after Neal in off season if they so choose to.

Wow. that is horrible. you think were going to be able to lose Dions contract for a better player with less cap and yrs? We're stuck with Dion for another 4 yrs. Not smart Senskill.

Hoff, Don't worry about senskill, he will quote the cap situation without looking it up. He will (in his own post) argue that phaneufs contract is done 2 years before browns when it's not, and anything else he can do to make his point assuming we are all posting online without access to the internet to fact check.

That's exactly what vegas needs, veteran D with big contracts. lol you realize that they have about 12 D and are trying to move some out to get more playing time for young guys, right? How does taking 4 years at 7mill of phaneuf for their best player make them better?

Ya don't worry Hoff we don't bunch you in with Senskill, I don't anyways. That guy is nuts.

His contract is done at end of 2020/ 2021 season it's currently the 2017/ 2018 season my math gives it 3 years left not 4. And Neal is not a better player lol. First off they are hardly comparable at different positions but like Phaneuf, Neal is a streaky player.

Not to mention rental players don't have a crazy value no matter how good they are.

Neither do overpaid veterans with a few years of term left and 17/ 18, 18/ 19, 19/ 20, 20/ 21. Of the trade was made today, he would have 8 games shy of 4 full seasons left. I've seen your math before.

Phaneuf might be an over played veteran but the fact he's still a top 4 defenceman on any team keeps his value up. 2 years ago you might have an argument unbiased jim while he still had 5 years left but with 3 years left it's perfect for teams like Philly or new jersey like teams that need to resign big name rookies and would be able to do so because of Pheneuf pay cut.
