I already was prepared when i heard that he asked for a 5 year, $25 million deal and they turned him down.

Phaneuf is a restricted free agent. I guess Brian Campbell was right. The price is still rising.

Well, this FO screws up again! Could have had Campbell for 5/25 million. I guess they didn't learn their lesson.

Why? When the owners obviously can't control their own spending.

Wait a second, I thought he loved Calgary and Sutter cried when they drafted him.

Sutter hugged him too. Guess there is no reach around up north.

and they control their own spending by locking out the players. Catch 22.

good, he's overated like the rest of the team. Campbell has had one good playoff, and half a season. He's been quite average and i won't miss him.
