A single MVP season. There are arguments to be made he shouldn’t have even won that year

Thread: Where do they go from here

That Strome trade gives me Jokiharju for Nylander flashbacks....not interested.

I’m not totally against trading Strome, but we need an established player back this time.

Otherwise, the rest looks good, although if we have the space, I think they go with a different backup goalie for next season. Subban hadn’t even gotten an audition this season, can’t see him coming back

Reuniting the 4th line is so huge. Hasn’t been intact since mid-December. Ladd looking okay the last few games is promising too

Thread: Islanders free up space

A little late, but I like these deals for the Isles a lot. Clutterbuck is the one I’m most disappointed about losing but the money made between those guys could cover Barzal itself. If we were to make first trade, the second one is less appealing imo. Not as much relief and giving up a good young player, but still a relatively small price to pay to move Ladd

Thread: Post Corona Isles

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles777</b></div><div>It’s unfortunate that Dobson will taken out in favor of boychuk. Other than pulock , he’s been our best defenseman and it’s not even close. You can add another 20 turnovers to his stats and he’s still overall better than most of the D.

Pelech won’t be back this season no matter how far they go.

Honestly I want dal colle as insurance for brassard lol. Brass has been brutal lately and if he can’t turn it around, I wouldn’t mind a beau-pageau-dal colle line.</div></div>

Totally agree on Dobson. I just can’t see them playing him over Boychuk, simply because “muh veteran.”

Pelech, like I said: Let me get excited about something....

And MDC is okay, he just never does anything. I’d almost rather have Leo in there because at least when he has the puck, there’s a chance something good might happen. Wouldn’t mind seeing Johnston or Koivula getting a shot in that spot. I do agree, however, that running Brassard back out there probably isn’t the best idea

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Missouri</b></div><div>Do you think Andrew Ladd will actually get healthy? I thought his career was probably done? I don’t follow NYI much but I’ve always been a fan of Ladd on the Jets. It would be nice to see him back out there again!!</div></div>

He’s been healthy all year, he’s just bad. Was in the AHL for awhile. Had a nice game on Tuesday though, so depending on how he’s doing after the break, maybe he gets to stay in the lineup. I’m really cheering for him, both as an Islander and on a personal level. He’s a rare guy who has played for both my favorite teams and if he can help us rn, I’m all for his support

Thread: Chicago fans

Not really. I love Dumba’s offensive game, but with all the OFDs we already have, I’m skeptical about adding another (expensive) one. Donato is still young, but right now he’s a nonstarter. Besides, 17 and 92 were playing really well before the break and Strome especially (I think) should be a long term piece.

Even with Strome, I’m not sure he’s the game changer Minnesota is looking for. Their run into a playoff spot has been one of the cooler stories of the last month or so but talk about a team that could use a guy like Byfield....

Which is exactly why they’ll keep him, he’s one of the only guys on the team who can drive play. Management be damned if they let another franchise face go

Bailey’s overpaid but he’s far from useless. He’ll get more than a 3rd, if he gets traded at all

I’m honestly not surprised about that, I thought the Rangers would be better this year (and then soured on them when they got off to a bad start). It just sucks the Islanders have fallen so far. They can’t protect leads anymore it’s pathetic

Thread: 84M cap - NYI trade

Probably an overpayment on Montreal’s part but an interesting idea nonetheless. Pulock I think is just so valuable to the Islanders that it’s really gonna take a lot to pry him away (which this would be imo). Can’t see why Montreal would want to do this though

In all seriousness tho, it’s getting harder and harder to see this team make the playoffs. The literally cannot win and used up all their black magic in November.

Totally agree, it’s about time Dobson got a look on his good side. If he and Leddy get bottom pair minutes we should be okay

De Haan was great when he was healthy, hopefully he can play a full season. Otherwise, with Boqvist's development and a new face in Ian Mitchell, I'm fairly confident we'll see at least a little improvement.

Not a ton of great, affordable defenders on the free agent market, so I think most of the improvements we make on the backend will be internal.

Thread: Big Chicago trade at the draft

Nylander could be had, but I don’t think Dach is getting moved anytime soon and no one in that package thrills me (Strome maybe?).

Think a Nylander for Georgiev deal could work this summer? Maybe Chicago throws in another prospect
