Hamilton probably. Suter still sitting on his 100 million dollar contract, I think he chooses where he wants to play, I don't think money is a concern with him. winning a championship and keeping his family happy I think is what will drive him for this next contract.

Thread: Thinking cap is on

actually like the thinking here. I really don't see Landeskog moving on from Colorado and definitely not for less then $8 Million but it's a start.
I would also move Bellows and Aho for futures as they seem to be rotting here and maybe sign a vet like Chara as the 3rd pairing and make Greene the 7th D man

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BobbyD</b></div><div>How does this improve the team? Anders Lee stays, Parise for the entire regular season, Wahlstrom is better, Dobson gets more minutes and is better, Sorokin is now 1b and is better, we get two PP specialists to help the struggling Isles PP. Komarov can be buried when someone needs to be called up(happened consistently last regular season.)</div></div>

I get your thinking, I just don't agree. I hope I'm wrong and you're right as I'm an isles fan but I am wary with Lee coming off major surgery and everyone expecting the moon of him. I don't have expectations of Wahlstrom stepping in full time and pumping 30 in because he's a year older or him and Dobson to magically make the PP better because they were both apart of it for large stretches this year.
My personal thought is the isles play the way they do and are constructed the way they are because they don't have the pure snipers type of talent that can walk in and pick corners. Their players miss the net a lot, shoot into the crest of the goalie a lot because they're just a hard working, force the other team in stupid mistakes, creating chances type of team.
What I'm saying here is that Parise/Suter plus last years roster isn't "better".
I don't think there's much they can do this summer unless they unload multiple players or mortgage everything. But, I'm not sold with those 2 in and no wiggle room.

Thread: Minny

So, how does this improve the team from last year?
Yes, the D core is stronger but you're only move up front is Parise for Palmieri... that's not a positive, forward move for a team that's streaky and needs help on the PP

And you're at $0 cap with only 21 players.

I would think Goodrow gets a better offer on the open market.

Thread: isles get tarasenko

This looks great on paper.
The Blues aren't doing that though with that few of a return with retention
Isles and Lou aren't going into a season with a 20 man roster and no wiggle room in cap.

I think Ladd throws it in next year. He's played 1 game in the ahl this season. One. He either joins Boychuk or just retires and goes back home to his family.

That would be a solid off-season if they could pull that. Always liked Mantha's game.

Would be great for NYI but have to think ANH says no. They're not in need of a Josh Bailey type at this time of their build.
Bailey and Nelson have frustrated me every game night with how slow they've become with their puck decisions.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles777</b></div><div>Garland is an elite winger</div></div>

Didn't say he wasn't. That price though, he is not for the NYI. if that were really the price, CAR or COL, who have a young team and great prospect pool are the teams that would be in a on him.
That kind of move for the islanders, all of those high pieces for 1 player is not their move.
I'm not against making a big move. I'm not against trading picks or prospects, just not everything you have to move for 1 player.

Thread: Garland

So, NYI didn't have a 1st or a 2nd last year, have very little in terms of prospect pool and you're offering this years 1st and 2nd, next years 1st and 2nd and a fwd prospect and D prospect... yea, ok.

If you're giving up Wilde and a 2nd already, I'd see how much Rackell would be before I throw that for Terry

Thread: Ekholm

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>villenash</b></div><div>I think that's actually a pretty interesting offer from NYI -- Bellows, Bolduc/Wilde/Salo, 1st. If NSH really is rebuilding here, they could still probably take on Komarov for a pick(s) or something too.</div></div>

They would have to work something because NYI couldn't add that salary without NSH taking something back.
I don't think this is the right move for the NYI, my thought is they need a pure goal scorer more then a D man but, don't think many are out there that won't cost big pieces of the farm.
Isles could lose one of those 3 young D men and still be in good shape.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ZiggyPalffy</b></div><div>Using the Muzzin trade as a comparable, how much more do you think they'll get? Lol.</div></div>

It's not more, it's what the offer is. Bellows is a wing who's already on the outs in the organization... (top 9 W who needs good playmaker with him)
Aho is a small bottom pairing D who can't get into the nhl in the isles organization.
Everyone knows Komarov is a cap dump.
The picks are what they are.... picks.

If I'm NSH, I counter with Bellows and one of Bolduc, Wilde or Salo with a 1st.

Thread: Ekholm

NSH can definitely do better. It's a lot of pieces but not a lot of quality. Rumors out that Trotz was not a fan of Ekholm when he coached in NSH though.

I would do that in a heart beat. I would think NSH would want a better defensive prospect.

Thread: changes

Islanders need a lot more help on the PP then just Wahlstrom or Bellows.
If they lose the zone, they struggle to get it out of their own zone and break back into the offensive zone.
