While the expansion draft has passed, that doesn't mean Ottawa Senators defenseman Dion Phaneuf is staying put.

The Senators are still trying to move Phaneuf, according to TSN's Darren Dreger, and one source told the insider there is "some interest" from teams that Phaneuf would accept a trade to.

The 32-year-old can submit a list of 12 teams that he can be traded to, according to Cap Friendly.

Phaneuf was the talk of the Senators last week after he refused to waive his no-trade clause, which would have allowed the team to protect Marc Methot instead. Methot was ultimately selected by the Vegas Golden Knights in the expansion draft.
