Description
Injuries:
Ryan Pulock is off LTIR and Adam Pelech skated in a full contact jersey today. Both are expected to make the trip to Toronto for Monday's game. I expected Pulock to be back soon but Pelech is a huge surprise. I thought there was a legit chance he was done for the season, which would have meant LTIR money was in play. Bortuzzo and Cizikas have shifted on LTIR but can come off whenever they are ready. Once Cizikas is off, the Islanders will need to make a roster move (simplest is sending a player like MacLean to BPT but could also be a trade because guys are getting healthy). Bortuzzo could be waived at any point if he comes off LTIR. He could also bump Aho/Bolduc off the roster. Depends on how staff/management feel.

News:
Lamoriello and Roy said today they are going to give Wahlstrom a long look. This is probably his last chance but nonetheless I don't expect him to be traded right now. Maybe by the deadline he could be if he hasn't shown enough, but for now Wahlly is locked into that 3rd line.
Trades
1.
NYI
  1. Duclair, Anthony ($1,500,000 retained)
Additional Details:
I think Duclair (Roy coached in juniors) or Henrique (Lou/roster connections) are the 'favorites' to be acquired if Lou makes a move at the deadline. Duclair would Bolster the top 9 and provide some speed/flexibility for Roy
SJS
  1. Aho, Sebastian
  2. 2025 3rd round pick (NYI)
  3. 2026 4th round pick (NYI)
Additional Details:
Not sure what he costs right now. 17 points in 46 games on a bad team. Could see paying a 2nd if there is a bidding war
2.
NYI
    Future considerations
    NSH
    1. Martin, Matt
    Additional Details:
    Islanders could waive Martin if they added to the top-9. Would need to free up a roster spot and cap space. Not sure if Nashville is the right fit but I'm going there because if the Trotz connection

    That trade confused the hell out of me until I remembered there were 2 Sebastian Aho's.

    Decent price for Duke I think. Curious what Sharks fans think.

    Excellent points. I really hope they put wally on the second line to get a better look at him and move engvall down to the third line. Not sure if San Jose would retain on Duclair since it's their last retention spot but he would be a great add.
