No, he's got one more yearJust pick him off waivers? Isn't he waiver fodder now?
Can't seem us being interested in that kind of player. We already have a crazy logjam of bottom 6 forwards with a number of prospects ready soon (Ho-Sang, Bellows, Wahlstrom, etc.)ya the price has to be right for sure. IIRC JVR's acceleration was always mediocre but he was fast when he got to speed, but I think the post-broken foot JVR is a better comp and he was still good for the Leafs.
Maybe NYI would give him up for a low ceiling/high floor type at some point this year, see if a Brooks/Timashov/Trevor Moore/Engvall type starts looking like a good bet to be an NHL'er and take a flyer on it
fair enough, I might do thatRealistic price is probably a 4th. Not sure if the FO is looking to sell low on him though, they might just rather keep him.
NYI and Dallas should swap MDC for
Gurianov
Both could benefit from a change of scenery. Gurianov has talent just lacks consistency
How about a reclamation project for another one?
Isles:
McCarron, Michael
2019 Habs 6th rd pick
2020 Winnipeg 4th rd pick
Mtl:
Dal Colle, Michael
2019 Isles 7th rd pick
McCarron has at least shown he's capable of a 4th liner/13th forward type of role and has bigger size. But obviously the upside is with Dal Colle if he ever puts it together.
Or maybe drop the 6th and replace McCarron with Rychel, Kerby ?
Why would you put BarelyAnNHL'er on McDavid's wing?If he was available, I'd hope the Oilers were in on him ... which means they could work with him to see if he could be a good compliment to one of McDavid or Draisaitl's games.
A 3rd is about right for valueNope, I'll take a 3rd
Islanders have a high success rate in getting busts in the top-5, must say, it is a quality that should be brought more about Snow, he finds the top en busts, and saves everyone from them, except Oilers.... they crave them more then I crave chocolate.
I think he's commenting on the trades for Reinhart and Strome. I also have no idea who "PRV" is.The Oilers had 1 pick that busted that was a high pick . YAK ! Yet he was rated 1 by most scouts . I would argue coaching was a problem but if you watch Yak he just didn't do anything at a real high level to be a 1st OA . Likeable kid and i wish him all the best . He just isn't a NHL player . PRV was a 10th OA and i said it then and i will say it now the Oilers should have moved him to defence . He played D most of his career . The Oilers needed D badly and he was solid defensively . He could skate . Seem dumb they never moved him back to what i consider his natural position
Because he has an additional year of waiver exemption where the Oilers could develop him their way and Dal Colle's ability is similar to what Ty Rattie brings to the table. They both have decent offensive instincts and both have a high quality shot.Why would you put BarelyAnNHL'er on McDavid's wing?

Alexandre Daigle? My grandma and a year's supply of her Parkinson's meds?Just curious, is he one of those players that is worth more to the current organization than he is on the market (based off draft position) or would Islanders fans be open to moving him for a player of equal to slightly higher value?
This kid broke my heart. I wanted him so bad on draft day. More than Bennett Nylander and Ehlers.
The sad part is that he's got a backstory to him that makes it almost impossible to root against him.
Even as a Ranger fan, I wanted to see him do well.
we can trade yours back if you would likeNope, I'll take a 3rd
