An interesting idea

Équipe: 2021-22 Islanders de New York

Date de création initiale: 10 sept. 2021

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

I know the leafs refused to trade mikheyev but what happens if he refuses to play, and they are forced to trade him. I think he would be a great fit on nyi.
Mikheyev is fast and good defensively so he will be able to fit in seamlessly on JGs wing. He also kills penalties which is a plus. The offensive upside is there and i see this as a low risk high reward type of move. At worst you get a defensive bottom 6 forward who kills penalties and has nhl level puck skills (unlike leo komarov). At best we get a real solid 3rd liner whos good on both ends of the ice and can really contribute. I also think he will really work well in the trotz system. But this makes too much sense, so i know it wont happen 😢😢
