This might actually be the worst trade proposal I've ever seen

Was just coming to say this...on the main boards it is certainly the worst i've ever seen. On our boards it can only be beat by intended trolling offers.

A prospect hoarder because Spurgeon burnt him, but in the Vanek deal Snow threw away multiple picks.

Spurgeon wasn't the only player to burn Snow. We lost a few players that way.

As for the Vanek trade...the reason why they looked so lopsided was because the Isles refused to take on any salary. In order to do this, you have to give incentives to the other team.

Vanek + 5th Round pick for Sebastien Collberg and a 2nd

Montreal took on Vanek's entire value of contract - I believe this was the case..it has been a while (can't remember if this was also the case for Montreal as I remember it was the case for Buffalo).

Sebastien Collberg turned into a dud....unfortunately, and now plays in Sweden.

The second was pick #57 which was packaged up with pick #35 to move up ...that turned into Josh Ho-Sang.

I'm ok with how things turned out. It would also suck to have Vanek on the contract we offered him and thank him for turning it down.

Yeah, doubt very much the Islanders do this trade.

It will take a long time for Snow to trade JHS, because of his ego, he drafted him and nobody else.

Neal and Perron will be traded at the deadline, this seems very sure.

Both Neal and Perron will be traded, because LV will not be able to compete in years.

However, this proposal is insulting.

or because josh ho-sang will be a top 6 forward next season and he's only 21?
