Even if the Islanders manage to clear enough cap space to bring in a large contract (which they won't). They'll either use that extra space to sign Barzal long term or go after a UFA like Hoffman, Craig Smith or Toffoli. Why should they trade away their future when there's other options and they don't have to? Not to mention Gaudreu isn't what they need, they're weak on the right side (Eberle) not the left. Lee's fine where he is he's a nice presence in front of the net.
