It's not necessarily that I think he's worth the moon, it's just that I don't see moving Mayfield for Pearson to make much sense in a vacuum. Isles have a ton of guys that are in their late 20s/early 30s that could mayyybe pop off for 20 goals and 50 points like Pearson - this is just trading one of their more valuable assets at the NHL level to get another one of those.

In what world do the islanders do that trade and Gaudreau signs for at least 10+ for 6 years+ other than that though not too shabby
