Description
Now that we’ve missed out on Gaudreau, we may just want to stand pat at least for the offseason. As things currently stand, we really don’t have a ton of good pieces to offer or leverage, not do I see any teams who currently HAVE to offload a forward.

I think we see what Lambert’s system is like, see if the Isles can contend as they currently are, then try to make a deal at the TDL based on what we know by then.

I’d bet at least one playoff team will be unsatisfied with their goalie come TDL. That’s when we sell high on Varly. The more we learn about the 2023 class, the deeper it could get. That raises the stock on our 1st round pick. Maybe Raty or Dufour wows us in camp and makes one of our veteran forwards obsolete. Hell, maybe a guy like Bellows or Beauvillier has an anomaly of a good year and we can sell high on that?

Pursuing Gaudreau was the right thing to do. Tough that it didn’t work out. But the last thing we should do is make a brash deal for an aging forward on an expiring deal.

Can’t wait to hear you and other Isles fans bend over backwards explaining why trading more futures for a rental or why offering an aging physical center 8x7 is a great idea. No move is better than a bad move.

I doubt Calgary is going to just sell all assets just because Gaudreau left. Their rhetoric hasn’t been a whole lot of catastrophizing, I bet they try to stay relevant, and considering the division they’re in, I don’t blame them. Point is, I’d bet Calgary hangs on to Tkachuk. I certainly would. But even if they do sell on Tkachuk, how many assets would we need to sell for him? I’d bet easily north of Räty, a 1st, a 2nd and Beauvillier.

And honestly, I’d rather miss the playoffs this year than make the next Andrew Ladd signing. I bet we get one or two good years out of Kadri until leaves us with five years of cap hell. With his style of play, he’ll age way too quickly, especially playing Islanders hockey. Let another team get ripped off.
