Too much quantity, not enough quality I suspect.

We need a young nhl calibre player ,that can either play in our top 4 or top 6 right away...But at least its a good effort by Ilses fans

Bellows is close. He could challenge for a spot. Only problem is he doesn’t seem to generate his own offense.

Most Isles fans think that Bellows is probably good enough to start playing in the NHL next season .

 

[saintunspecified]

I really don't think that Karlsson is the best fit for NYI if they sign Tavares from a salary-cap management point of view. And if they don't sign John Tavares, I don't think they can afford the assets it will take to acquire him. From NYI perspective, I think the Senators can find a better trade partner.

I doubt that.

I think Ottawa would insist on Beauvillier at a minimum.

Hard to say what will happen with EK,he may even resign ....I think the NYI will keep their star, have a great draft and build up a pretty good team...Trading for EK doesnt seem to fit what is happening in NY

110a, 12oa, Beauvillier and Ho-Sang seems like the package they would be looking for

If that's for an extended EK and JT re-signs, I'm in.

That cripples both franchises,we need to ice a team next season that isnt all kids

 

[blinkman360]

Yeah I doubt the Isles are moving Beauvillier for anyone that might walk in a year. Someone posted in another thread picks 11 and 12, Bellows and Pulock. Seemed pretty reasonable to me and probably the most NYI would offer outside of another 2nd/decent prospect.

 

[Meeqs]

If they do this they wont have the money to resign JT so its clearly a no, and if JT is gone then they wont be trading young assets to win now which is also a no.

 

[topshelf15]

The NYI will resign the star,and keep their deep prospect pool intact...They really dont need to blow everything on a superstar defender right now

We have like the second most cap space in the NHL

With a young star on his ELC Barzal is going to be expensive,but totally worth it...Again you guys are looking real good with pieces you have and have coming ...Just stay the course,Ottawa cant trade its best ever player for prospects we need to bring in a young nhler or two...We cant market picks...

Ohh wow they have like half a team to resign. I actually did not realized they had this much freed up though so thanks for correcting me.

So with their current cap space of 32m, JT gets 13m of that EK will be getting 10 of it, Ryan for Clutter adds and extra 2m which leaves 7m to sign about 5-7 players. Seems close

I agree totally, karlsson is a great player. I just don’t see him as a fit for nyi, cap wise, and as a player tbh.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

I doubt that.

Really? Why do you doubt that?

 

[Isles Junkie]

Bellows may be the perfect replacement for Lee who I think will be traded to being in a dman or goalie

 

[saintunspecified]

Really? Why do you doubt that?

Because he's draft +3, has yet to play against professional competition, and he has below-average speed. His draft +2 year wasn't anything to write home about. Beauvillier's draft +1 year was far more impressive in comparison. I mean, why do you think he could step in next year?

Bellows needs to play a year in the AHL before we know if whether he's a scorer or a grinder. If he plays in the NHL next year I'm afraid he'll end up just a grinder.

No thank you

 

[ThreeLeftSkates]

Yeah, someday. Right now? Dubious at best.

 

[Isles Junkie]

Yeah, someday. Right now? Dubious at best.

Yes I did mean he has the potential to grow in to that role.

In section 96 of the NHL rules it states no team shall employ Andrew Ladd and Bobby Ryan simultaneously
