Is Ho-Sang possibly on the table? He’s good, but seems superfluous with the emergence of Barzal and Bailey and I find it odd he’s back in the A, despite good production. What’s the vibe from Isle fans about his long term future with the team?
If he’s on the move maybe Mrazek and Detroit’s extra 2nd round pick for him?
21 Savage, Bailey is a UFA in less than 12 months and Eberle is a UFA the year after this one.
Yes, NYI has two talented top 6 RWs at the current moment, but there’s not a guarantee that either will be with the team for the foreseeable future.
Therefore, I see the Islanders being overly patient with Ho-Sang as he has the potential to fill either of the top six holes should they become available.
If Bailey and/or Eberle re-sign long term, maybe then will Ho-Sang’s availability change, but at the current moment, NYI’s future top six RW situation has a lot of question marks so I can’t see them interested in trading a top six RW prospect (especially not for an asset that wouldn’t improve the long term stability of the top six RW situation).
Not harping on you, it’s just that a quick look on Capfriendly.com can sometimes easily identify what prospects are and aren’t most likely to be expendable by an organization based on the contracts of the current roster players.
