Rumor: Sportsnet's John Shannon is saying Kadri deal to the Isles is getting finalized and should be done by this week

[The Crypto Guy]

Send Barzal to Winnipeg for Dillon and a 1st baby

They could only dream for a return like that for a salary dump.

How about we get Ehlers for Beauvilier and a 1st instead, and screw Kadri.

I definitely havent thought of Barzal as a salary dump. I'm assuming you meant him and not Dillon?

A move like this would take a huge part of the sting away of when they are losing Dubois for the Jets

If you meant Dillon, then fair ball I guess. He's in that not overpaid but has no value with the cap the wauly it is group. Like half the veterans in the league rn.

How about we get Ehlers for Beauvilier and a 1st instead, and screw Kadri.

I only responded to a guy who brought Barzal and Dobson up. I thought I was being nice not bringing him up lol

 

[Lays]

I still think there's a chance Lou shocks the world and trades Barzal or Dobson. Barzal more so than Dobson

Barzal I could see, there was underground rumors of him almost being traded at the deadline

 

[Foppberg]

Nah.

 

[doublechili]

I'm not doubting that Kadri to the Isles will happen, but these reports are taking on a NORAD Santa Tracker kind of vibe.

You mean Barzal for 1st + Lucius + McGroarty

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Yeah on your personal blog

 

[Flair Hay]

If the Isles want to keep everyone they should just not sign Kadri

I realize it's a bit of a pipe dream. Someone said they could see Lou pulling a surprising move and moving Barzal or Dobson. So I threw something out there.

 

[Izzy Goodenough]

Dobson is not getting 7 million, Romanov is not getting 3 million.

In all likelihood Dobson signs a bridge deal for 4.5-5, Romanov around 2.

Help me out here, I can't find a single RHD that had 13 goals, 38 assists for 51 points that signed a bridge for 5M.

I can find a RHD that had lesser points at the end of their entry level contract that signed for 8M.

What makes those bridge contracts?

Macavoy got 4.9 for three years. That’s a comparable to use. We’re all in the dark for this but using Makar and Chabot as comparables on mid to long term deals isn’t gonna fly

Bridge deal is 2 years traditionally, a bridge between the ELC and a long term deal

 

[BelovedIsles]

Just sign him so I don't have to see these threads anymore.

I want Dobson for the Habs

 

[SI90]

I want Dobson for the Habs

And I want Ana de Armas waiting for me in my bed when I get home. Let’s see who gets what they want first!

So Lou finally found a winger to play with Barzal. It just turns out it was himself.

 

[Timeless Winter]

If I was an Islanders fan, I'd have alot of anxiety right now. No clue who they'll trade.

Varlamov makes a tonne of sense. Vegas would probably pay through the nose for a goalie right about now.

 

[Freedom]

will be continue

 

[Mike C]

How does moving either guy make sense?

It doesn't

 

[Chiarelli]

Colorado playing 4D chess leaking this “news” only to watch Lou throw a fit and back out last second. Kadri signs in Colorado for half

Cant help it but i se Lou on your avatar and the rest of the islanders management trying to force him to sign Kadri and stop the nonsene.

 

[IslandersFan17]

Barzal I could see, there was underground rumors of him almost being traded at the deadline

No there was not

 

[JoeSakic13]

Barzal I could see, there was Eklund rumors of him almost being traded at the deadline

FTFY

NORAD is much more reliable in actually occuring.

I am too lazy to look for it but co-owner Jon Ledecky was asked about the team's offseason so far and he responded with "in Lou we trust".

Though there's probably some STH's that are biding their time waiting for the announcement of who will be on the team but corporate boxes are all full....

So if there was a picture of a couple blind men hugging Lou in BT's avatar that would make more sense.
