Hes trying to shop Chycrun to Brad so he was invited to come watch and chat

Genius

I mean, the Sens should be scouting Ryan Pulock. Doesn't mean we'll actually get him but he's definitely a player the Sens should target if they end up trading Chabot or Chychrun.

Pulock has a NTC and has spent his entire NHL career with the Islanders since he was drafted.

He's not going anywhere.

He might but man they are gonna ask for a lot and I mean a lot for him.

for what it's worth on your Isles targets:

-Holmstrom would have the highest price tag. He took some time to warm up but he seems to be developing into a solid everyday NHLer with some decent amount of cheap team control left. Isles have a ton of big contracts with term so a cheap guyw ho can hold his own is worth his weight in gold.

-Wahlstrom is probably gettable although management was talking about giving him more run - whether that's to showcase him for a trade or to try and finally get some offense out of him remains to be seen. I think the return for him is probably another "change of scenery" roster player - I would think something like Wahlstrom & old Sens friend Mike Reilly for Brannstrom would be a decent framework (including Reilly to make the cap basically even.)

-I like MacLean (first NHL goal tonight) but I don't know how much value he has. Probably a 4th liner at best so I don't know what the return would be if the Isles want to trade him - feels like an add-on more than anything. Maybe Wahlstrom & MacLean for Brannstrom + a mid-rounder works?

This is a good assessment. Although, as crazy as this sounds, I'm not trading Mike Reilly. He's looked really good as an Islander. I'd rather just keep him than add him into a trade.

I don't hate the Wahlstrom and MacLean for Brannstrom and a mid-rounder idea, although I think we'd be better off just keeping them at that price.

And yeah, we're not moving Holmstrom.

Definitely was a stream-of-consciousness post - you can see I talked myself out of Wahlstrom/Reilly for Brannstrom and into Wahlstrom/MacLean for Brannstrom+ by the end of it lol

Isles aren't moving Holmstrom. To be honest, Isles shouldn't be moving young player since we have no farm system and one of the oldest teams in the league.
