Incarcerated Bob tweeted out that Lou has had trade offers for Sorokin.The press says he has rejected his khl team's extension offer and wants to play in the nhl next season.
Sorokin denies a Friedman rumor that he was trying to force a trade and Lou told NY press the team has not changed their plans to bring him over this summer. The article below says Lou has gotten calls on Sorokin.I am guessing because of the Friedman rumor.
Isles fans are pretty divided. Imo the isles lack high end talent and moving Sorokin for a few pieces with lower upside would be Luongo for Kvasha/Parrish 2.0. Isles do need a top 6 scoring sniper,but have Wally/Bellows/Holmstrom developing in Bridgeport.
What do you all think Lou should do?

Islanders trade rumors: Team receiving calls on Ilya Sorokin
The Islanders would be beyond stupid to trade him. I don't have any faith in the limited talent goalies they have in net now. Greiss is 33 which means he's done pretty soon. Varlamnov is 31. So in 2 years you are looking at his decline. Best case scenario is you find a taker for Wahlstrom who sucks, Bellows who isn't good and try to get some team to give you 15-20 goal types willing to chance it on their potential. Then move Wilde for what you hope is a good forward.
