I would hate to be Barzal if the deal went through. Sure he might be making more as a Hab, but for years he will be under scrutiny by the Hab fans and media. Eight years in Montreal and more than likely not getting past round one during almost all that time. Sorta like a Eichel situation. Making great money but likely aren't getting past the Bruins/Tampa and even possibly the Leafs. And the Wing and Sens might be good soon with their young players and cap space.
If I'm the Isles, I don't make the deal. Force the Habs into giving up the picks in an offer sheet, and then the Isles have about the 8m cap space with the missing Barzel money.
