Ice Scoopz; Phillips Re-Signs

*-> The Ottawa Senators and Chris Phillips have come to terms tonight to a 3 year deal, I'm hearing it's worth 10 million overall. More to come

**Update It's 9.25 million a season TSN is reporting.

I'm not too excited about this one for the Sens as Phillips could have eased the rebuild by bringing in a high pick but the Sens now have a dressing room guy and mentor for the young cast. The one thing that doesn't add up Sens fans is how are any of these young prospect able to possibly break in next season with Lee, Phillips, Gonchar, Kuba, Carkner, and Karlsson all under contract for next season and Campoli as an RFA? Someones gotta go to make room for one of the future stars so can we count on a Sens defenseman being shopped? I'd say so.
