[FSL KINGS]

That's a big no from Kings.

 

[SpezDispenser]

You're kidding lol

 

[John Mandalorian]

Don't see the Avs trading Lehkonen even if Nichushkin returns and finds form.

It seems like the Avs might be open to trading Byram. Not sure what might balance out a trade involving Nelson.

 

[JoeSakic13]

I really hope Lehkonen trade rumors are limited to this thread’s OP. I can’t see any reason why Colorado would even consider giving up a guy like that. That’s the kind of guy you hope to land at the TDL if you’re a contender, not one you move on from.

 

[TBF1972]

if it was just so easy to make a retool.

 

[SRHRangers]

Guess tonight is amateur hour.

Only that Rangers-Ducks proposal is drawing away attention from just how awful this one is.

 

[kilowatt]

Kings aren’t trading Clarke

 

[TheNewEra]

I wouldn't trade tarasenko alone for that and you want pinto too lmao

 

[TkachukNorris79]

You can have Tarasenko for your 1st if he'll waive to go there.

Pinto is not available.

Let’s start from the top:
-PLD is a head case so that’s an automatic no. He’ll complain the first instance Roy yells at him and just coast his way until he gets dealt.
-Nelson AND Pelech for Byram and Lehkonen is a massive downgrade for the roster and the 2 pieces returning won’t make up for what both him and Pelech bring to the roster.
-You’re not trading Romanov, 23 year old defender who’s an absolute rock alongside Dobson to maybe lateral the center position after offing Brock Nelson.

Just please stop playing NHL on franchise mode drunk and thinking you made good deals

Move out: Aho, Wahlstrom, Martin, Clutterbuck and possibly one of Pageau/Palmieri then roll with what’s in the system from there.

You don't like the deals that's fine. But what is ironic is that you don't like them from an Islanders standpoint. Everyone else who responded don't like it from the other teams standpoint.

 

[Altimus]

To add to why Ottawa declines, Romanov is a LHD, Ott can't add another Lefty.

I’ve been watching the Islanders long enough to know these deals won’t help them out at all and wont work moving forward. I don’t like it simply because it moves out pieces they should keep and overloads them with more of what they don’t need. They don’t need another offensive defenseman with what Dobson has done this year and show he can sustain it. PLD and his circus in Winnipeg irritated me to no end, shows the guy could care less about anyone but himself and doesn’t play into a team system unless it benefits him. The only player I’d target out of everyone listed is Pinto since he has connections and grew up (10 minutes away from UBS) an Islanders fan.

To add to why Ottawa declines, Romanov is a LHD, Ott can't add another Lefty.

Swap Romanov for Mayfield and it’s a done deal.

Lol. Costructive critique. Very helpful

 

[Spilot23]

What would Isles expect from the Avs for Nelson only?

 

[CornerStone61]

Ottawa gets bent here

At this point, it's not constructive you need. It's demolition.

If NYI would decide to deal Nelson, which I think they should, it would be a 1st + with the + being the best we could get from teams who'd want him. ftr, I think Nelson would an excellent addition, especially if he could shift to the wing.

Unlike other NYI fans, I do not believe NYI should obtain near-term salary commitments/requirements. Picks are better. NYI's near term strategy has to be to rebuild the bottom-6/PK, and that can be done via free agency imo.

 

[SI90]

Yikes

 

[stempniaksen]

Shane Pinto is so much better than people outside Ottawa realize.

Doesn't fill an organizational need for Ottawa and the value is bad. Call us when Dobson or Pulock are available, otherwise I don't see a single fit from a Senators perspective.

Neither will be available. Maybe Pulock in 5 years when he’s at the tail end of his career but Dobson you can watch for 82+ games a season on ESPN+ (or Hulu) if you have a subscription.

If Nelson is moved, move him for futures/a serviceable player on an expiring deal to fill a temporary roster spot. None of this Nelson for a 1st and some garbage deal with term to save a team from cap hell like a few (insert entitled Ontario franchise) expect.
