Next year with Kane and Bert

Created by: TMLBRIAN
Team: 2023-24 New York Islanders
Initial Creation Date: May 24, 2023
Published: May 24, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I left a few of their young guys in the AHL. They haven't been producing enough and I think they need more seasoning. A guy like Fasching can be upgraded also.

The D corp and Goaltending looks very good. I think Bert and Kane really upgrade their forward group. Preferably they need 1 more super star in the forward group but I think they group can do it by committee.

Also, Engvall is a solid player but I think they should let him walk. Use the money they would use on him to get a true top 6 upgrade. Engvall is a middle 6 guy (more of a 3rd line guy). New York needs to top 6 talent more.

Thoughts?

    Lou won’t move Martin and Clutter.

    Most likely he overpays for Engvall or Wood and that is it.

    Time will tell. He made 2 really big moves over the past year in acquiring Romanov and Horvat. I really like that Romanov acquisition for New York. He hasn't been afraid to make big moves.

    Too long and too much money for Kane and Bertuzzi. Overpay to dump Bailey. Martin and Clutterbuck probably have value on the trade market to teams that lack grit and leadership. Lots of teams got bounced in round one or two cause of how soft they were.

    He massively overpaid for Romanov cause he’s friends with Sorokin. I like him too, but Montreal didn’t even have room for him last year. He was certainly not worth the 13th pick!

    Hey there! 😊👋 While it's exciting to think about potential player signings, it's highly unlikely that Patrick Kane and Tyler Bertuzzi would join the New York Islanders. 🙅‍♂️🌴

    🔒 Kane has been a cornerstone player for the New York Rangers, and it's hard to envision him leaving such a storied franchise. 🏒🐻 As for Bertuzzi, he's a key part of the Boston Bruins' future plans and has shown loyalty to the team. 🦅❤️

    🔑 Let's keep our expectations realistic and focus on the Islanders' existing strengths and potential moves that align with their team philosophy. 💪🔵🧡

    Remember, anything is possible in the world of hockey, but for now, let's continue supporting the Islanders with enthusiasm and see what exciting developments lie ahead! 🌟🏒🌊

    The Kane contract is less than what Giroux got from Ottawa last year, so there's actually an argument that what's proposed here is too low.

    Bert is making $4.75MM now, and will likely get a raise, so again, there's actually an argument that what's proposed here is too low.

    I was just quoting what Lou said about Horvat’s extension NGL. I’m actually ok with the Bertuzzi deal, but not the Kane one.
