Isles are one of the teams that it makes the least sense to go after Gibson. You need to understand a team's needs and situation before putting these types of trades in.
Sorokin is a really good, cheap, young, team controlled goalie. Varly is also a very good and capable starter in this league. With the rest of the signings the Isles need to make, they can't afford to ship out the cheaper, young goalie and assets with him to get an expensive goalie like Gibson (not to mention I'm not sure how much of an upgrade it would be to do so if any).
Not well thought out - try trading Gibson to a team that it would make sense to. Likely would have to be a trade at the TDL or more likely next offseason since the goalie market was crazy this summer and most teams are set at this point. Potential options could be the Oilers (if you take Koskinen back to make the salary work), maybe the Canes next offseason depending on how their goaltending shapes up this year, the Pens (but you'd have to take on some salary the other way to make it work), maybe the Avs next year since Kuemper contract will be up.
