Thread: Trade Deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>slapshot723</b></div><div>You're over the cap.

I like the value for STL but doubt they do it with Bailey. Sucks because we need to move $ to get Tarasenko and I think aside from $ going back, we have the right value.

I like the value for the SEA trade too but this puts us over the cap, and I think SEA would want another mid or late-round pick with the 3rd for Soucy.</div></div>

Teams accrue cap space over the course of the season, this would be possible by the deadline.

Thread: People who think Caufield will get more than 2x Dach the next 4 years are wrong

Kirby Dach in his contract year: .37 PPG
Cole Caufield in his contract year (so far): 1.07 PPG

Caufield is looking at contracts like Kyrou (1.01 PPG the year before he signed for 8x8.125), not players who only broke out AFTER they signed their contracts.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LIRIK</b></div><div>They've been trying to dump Beauvillier for the last 2 years lol. Wahlstrom is too young, still growing. They're both their 2 first RW because they have nothing else.</div></div>

Where have you heard legitimate rumors that the islanders have been looking to dump Beau? All I could find after a quick were speculative articles about if trading him could help the team elsewhere? (And I’ve seen the same unfounded rumors about Josh anderson)

Also just because Wally is young doesn’t mean he’s not good. I mean Cole caufield is only in his second season, does that mean he’s not all that great by your logic?

Thread: Honest Leafs Fan Thoughts

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LIRIK</b></div><div>Habs could offer Anderson, Savard and Pezzeta for Marner. Money works.

Anderson is tougher than all of those Islanders players, he fought Chara 5 years ago and looked good. He's also fast and would be better than Clutterbuck on a 2nd line.

Savard won a cup with TB a year ago bringing toughness and defensive play to their team. He was so important i remember he was 3rd or 4th to lift the cup after their win.

Pezzeta is a hell of a 4th liner and will fight anyone in the league if needed.</div></div>

Thread: New York Swap

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dannibalcorpse</b></div><div>Maybe I'm being pedantic, but I'd retain $200K to make it a cash-even trade ($1.2M-$200K=$1M for Bellows/NYR; $800K+$200K=$1M for Gauthier/NYI).

In all honesty, though, if Bellows clears I keep him. Still no idea why they'd waive him and keep 32 (since apparently they didn't dress him against Reaves & NYR tonight) but greater minds than mine have failed trying to solve the Ross Johnston Problem</div></div>

I’ve tried to think of a logical explanation as to why bellows was waived over Johnston or soshnikov, but we have senile Lou as our GM so logic doesn’t exactly work here.

Thread: My Custom NHL23 Player Ratings

William Karlsson (42 point pace last season), Tyler Seguin (49 point pace last season), and Jonathan Toews (43 point pace last season) making the top 50 centers over Nelson (42 goal pace last season) and Barzal (66 point pace last season) is certainly a choice.

If the islanders are forced into a retool, why would they trade away an elite shutdown defenseman on a great deal instead of retooling around him? Seems like the type of player you keep around, especially for a package like that.

Thread: Opening Night Roster

I’ll never understand why fans of different teams make line predictions for all 32 teams when they have no idea what’s gone on through camp. Isles are running:
Parise-Barzy-Palms
Lee-Nelson-Beau
Bailey-JGP-Wahlstrom (if healthy, if not then bellows)
Martin-Cizikas-Clutter (if healthy, If not then Ross)

P-P
Romanov-Dobson
Salo-Mayfield (if healthy, if not than aho)

Sorokin

Thread: Signing Monahan short term - 2023 season

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Fran615</b></div><div>The Flames gave a 1st rounder to the Habs to get it out of their hands. Some folks on here claim he is done, Re: injuries.

Unless you have a crystal ball, no one knows for sure how he'll fare this season.
Same for me. I have no clue (humility).

If you 100% know the future, let me know how he did this upcoming season.
I was just proposing this contract as a 2-year "let's see how injury is going" type scenario.

But your entitlement let's me see your mental age.

And if my contract suggestion makes you go 'lmao', you have the most boring life imaginable.

So... will Monahan have a bad, medium, or great season? You seem to know!

Is it really worth it to play Barron as a 7th D during games just so you can play some potential waiver pickups when you’re not even trying to win? Montreal is gonna be horrible, no point to stunt your young player’s growth to be mediocre at best.

Thread: Next Year

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheRealisticGuy</b></div><div>Pastrnak will look at Panarin deal
Barzal will sign 8 X 10</div></div>

No way Barzal gets that much more than Thomas (8.125x8) or Hughes (8x8). Pasta contract is admittedly on the cheaper side but Panarin was signed pre-Covid, Johnny Hockey signed for sub-10 mil following a 115 point season, so I can’t imagine Pasta gets Panarin money. (And in this scenario add 600k to Pastas deal and decrease the 1.5 used on a backup to a league min deal)

Oh I definitely Agree there but I’m referring to the *admittedly few* armchair gms I’ve seen where the trade is something like pearson+rathbone+2023 1st for Dobson and their reasoning is that the islanders get a good middle six forward and a future top 4 defenseman to replace a top pair right shot defenseman.

Thread: Goddamn Lou wake tf up

Yeah but to be honest the isles don’t need those big names because our back-to-back GM of the year got us the perfect 1st line winger in Kyle Palmieri and refuses to move out elite talent Josh Bailey !!!

But fr I’m dreading the day Lou brings in the corpse of Phil Kessel to solve our scoring issues and calls it a day.
