Who are goal scoring wingers in your opinion? I'm looking for a list of names.

Ovie
Pasta
Connor
Laine
Kane
Kucherov
Marchand(cant argue with those goals, although i would consider him a 2 way playmaker before a goal scorer) Panarin is smilar in the sense where i would consider him a playmaker before goal scorer
Tarasenko,Boeser(although theyve had bad injury luck the past few years)
Hoffman
Before this year you can say Kessel as well.

you can argue a guy like Pacioretty as well, last 2 years havent as good for him but he seems to have kinda of a bounce back. theres others for arguments to be made

A compliance buyout does not affect the cap, but you are saying the islanders do not have the money to buyout Ladd, which is not true. You don’t understand that a team doesn’t have to be profitable to have the cash to buyout a player.

No that is exactly what I am saying, and more importantly then myself: that is what the experts have been saying. Teams that are not profitable (arizona, NYI, Florida, Preds (though they are on the rise), even the ducks) do not have the income to waste money on buyouts. I KNOW it sounds crazy, that is why im saying I agree with you, but the experts are saying its the truth. I AGREE that the should be able to pay, but the INSIDERS are explaining that there teams DO NOT HAVE THE INCOME to pay a bought-out player.

Some teams might not, the islanders do. Owners that Invested money into a 1.3 billion dollar arena have the money to buyout Andrew Ladd. It’s as simple as that...

Also the islanders have been a tenant at Barclays center, they do not own the arena. Barclays agreed years ago to pay the islanders 53 million per season no matter what. The islanders generate about 35 million in revenue, so Barclays center has been losing money on the islanders but the islanders still get paid.

You keep basing your argument on the islanders "not losing money" and "islanders generate about 35 million in revenue"

So im guessing you arent very into business: Here is a quick lesson
Revenue =/= Profit
Profit = Revenue - Expenses

The Islanders generate revenues yes, if the team didnt generate revenues, that would mean they arent selling any tickets, etc...
HOWEVER: Their EXPENSES are LARGER than their revenues, meaning that they are losing money every year.

I just found a third website: Forbes, which shows that they are producing 115million in revenue, but are losing 3.5million as a net loss (this means they have 118.5million in expenses, larger than their revenues)

So yes they are making money, but they are losing more than they are making, they can NOT afford to pay the costs of Ladds buyout. Case and Point.

PLEASE stop trying to argue, I know I am right, everyone else knows I am right, I am just trying to help you here. Please accept the help and stop making yourself look bad.[/quote

You seem like you have some sort of mental health issues, I would recommend you get help.

Again. It doesn’t matter if the islanders are losing money, they will still end up buyout Ladd this summer. There is no chance they are giving up assets to move ladds contract.

Dude what? I am simply answering your question. you are so childish and immature for saying that. Im sorry if my knowledge of business offended you I guess. I genuinely dont know why you are that weird to have said that when you are losing an arguement.

I mean damn, I just gave you a whole business lesson and you said i "have mental health issues", like you do realize how hypocritical you look rn. Im loving this because this whole conversation and your last comment have made me look so much smarter

😂😂😂 ok buddy keep thinking you’re right. Can’t wait to see your comments when the islanders buyout Ladd this summer.

You must be really successful in business!
