If Smith takes a $3.25m x 2 deal then he his staying in NSH

I like the isles and Wash trade, although lou giving up a first, might be the first time
Nice job

Palms should be the Capt
I'd make other FA signings myself

Palmieri has 8 team NTC and all Canadian teams are on it.

How much first round picks do you need? Lol

I think the Isles accept, assuming Boychuk waives his NTC or has NJ on his list

that 2nd line is... yikes. I like all the trades though

Prudential to Barclays Center isn't that far and Prudential to Nassau isn't terrible; Boychuk might not even have to move depending on where he/his family live. Plus he would probably get the same/ more ice time with the Devils. I can see him considering it. The only major question would be if he is okay playing on a rebuilding team compared to the islanders.

I don’t think flames do that trade

Caps are absolutely loaded at LHD, they have no need for a bottom pairing one.

I honestly can’t see it, which is part of the reason trading him is so hard and the Isles are in such a bind this offseason. 8 team trade list, so undoubtedly there are teams it will work with. Whether or not Lou & Co can find the deal is another thing. I personally like this one though. Bellows is still a wild card imo and moving down 32 spots in the draft isn’t the end of the world for me
