If you're trading Barzal. You'd better be getting more than that in return.

The main reason is Barzal plays center and Laine plays when he wants to.

Would have to interest the Jackets if contract talks fall through with Laine. They'd probably go for a pick and LD prospect over Gavy though. Gaudreau, Barzal and Johnson would be such an amazing line to watch. 7000 passes on every shift, but also 6000 deferred shots on open nets.

Islanders shouldnt even consider this

The dude who promised this doesn’t know anything about the isles. Plz disregard this trade proposal lol.

Same dudes who criticize Lou like to post **** like this. Just cause Lou is bad at his job doesn’t mean you know more than him. 😂😅 JK

This looks like something Mike Milbury would do, team is significantly worse

not for that, lmfao

I mean... I'd be interested. Make KJ the happiest kid in North America with his two idols on his team. Barzal would pretty much be the absolute ideal center for the Jackets.

Presumably though the idea for either team would be to have both Laine and Barzal, so I don't think either side could make it work in a way that would be worth it for either.

AZ is not taking on Bailey and his full money without getting a first or two seconds. Look at the deals all the cap space teams make. If we want to ship Bailey or others to the ANH, AZ or SEA of the world attach a first to it

Kadri is getting at least $7.5 on the market
Have to attach much more to Bailey deal to get anything back. Cap Space teams are not taking whole contracts as the latest trades show without getting 1's
