meh..

Little high, hope he still has more potential, but good player, huge in the playoffs at times. If he wasn't so streaky he would be an incredible player.

 

[Habs Halifax]

So much for Lou "hiding" his cap space lol.

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

I like him a lot but surprised its that high. Would have thought he'd get ~3m yr 1, ~3.5m yr 2, and ~4.25m yr 3, and that's probably being a bit generous.

Either way, if that's what it takes, it will probably be worth it... he's a good player. Just thought they would get it done for a bit less.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

The last 2 seasons combined he's played at a 47pts/82game pace, and even increased that in the playoffs.

His career high is 39 points, but that could and should change this year. Legit 2nd liner entering his prime, so 4.1M seems reasonable. Non-contender probably pays him 4.5M.

 

[saintunspecified]

Not a bad deal for a very good player, who happens also to be Mat Barzal's close friend even before they were Islanders. Along with his scoring, he's a high-energy, high-character guy who contributes to NYI's culture.

I continue to wonder what 'agreed to, but not filed' means in a way that fails to violate the spirit of the rules. Other NYI fans say they are sure they do, but I am not one of them.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

If true, that leaves 5.3 million for Sorokin and potentially Palmieri, yes?

 

[TGWL]

Near 50 points the last 2 seasons based on an 82 game schedule. I think anytime you lock up potential 50 points for around 4 million should be considered a good deal. Beauvillier is a little streaky but if he finds consistency, this should be a really good deal in years 2 & 3, especially if he continues to produce and come up big in the playoffs.

You're forgetting the Boychuk LTIR

 

[barriers]

Would that not bring the straight to UFA?

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

He's currently 24 and has a June birthday, meaning he'll be 27 in July when this contract expires.

So yeah, checks out, he'll be an UFA at the end of this deal. Not ideal.

Lou will extend him if he likes what he sees the next few years. AB, is close to busting out. Would like to see him sprinkled in with Barzal a few games here and there..Kid has shown glimpses of being a game breaker come playoff time. Old man Lou is watching

So are they pulling a Hoffman with Palmieri then?

Boychuck - $6 mil

I think the two of them will cost 8.5-9MAAV. Which, given other reasonable assumptions (Parise deal comes in at 1M AAV), leaves NYI around 3M over the cap less 6M LTIR from Boychuk. That also asssumes that Hickey and Komorov are buried. There is potentially up to 4MAAV available to acquire to pay a a new LD without shedding salary.

Lee-Barzal-Palmieri
Beauvillier-Nelson-Bailey
Parise-Pageau-Wahlstrom

R Johnston/Komorov go through waivers for injury replacements

Varlamov
Sorokin

 

[CREW99AW]

$12m in cap space + $6m when Boychuk goes on LTIR is $18m.

$2.5m for Cizikas.
$4.1m for Beau.
Leaves about $11m+ left

 

[CREW99AW]

Near 50 points the last 2 seasons based on an 82 game schedule. I think anytime you lock up potential 50 points for around 4 million should be considered a good deal. Beauvillier is a little streaky but if he finds consistency, this should be a really good deal in years 2 & 3, especially if he continues to produce and come up big in the playoffs.

Still very inconsistent. He was already coming off his show me contract ($2 m+). I would have preferred more term.

 

[MattyW]

Very streaky, but nails in the postseason.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

not bad

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Seems fair

 

[isles55]

Wish it were longer

 

[bsu]

Fair deal

 

[The Wahligator]

Guy scored the final goal ever at Nassau Coliseum (for real this time). Islander for life.

 

[izzy]

good deal for both sides, especially considering his playoff production and twitter game
