If Phanuef could sign for exactly 700, to drink beer and watch hockey in Washington, then Lewington could play 2RHD in Hershey, bumping LucaJo "down" to #1D, PP1 in first place SC, where he can get a point a game and build up some confidence in his offense again. He was drafted as a two way defenseman. Developing him as a stay at home guy might protect him from expansion, but to this outsider, it's not looking like it's giving him a clear path to the NHL. So, yeah, signing Phaneuf is fine, if he's in game shape. Might neet a PTO with Hershey to prove it (I don't think the NHL does mid-season PTO's, but the AHL probably still does), and then a few games there to get his legs under him, if he's okay with it.
