Islanders hang up and block Dubas’s number.

we already added our elite top pairing shutdown D, no need to get another



also honourable mention to justin holl who plays well when not tied to a rusty boat anchor

Isles don't want Mrazek, and Holl isn't really a desirable asset. I honestly don't think that Toronto and the Islanders line up on this deal unless Toronto wants to throw Niemela in the deal instead of Hirvonen.

Who's the elite shut down defenseman?

Apparently they only asking a 2nd + 3rd for Varlamov tho. So ur saying that mayfield is worth more than a 1st and a B/C tier prospect

Mrazek and Holl are toxic assets. I think each player you want to trade for is probably gonna command a 1st round pick on their own without taking back two bad players. Islanders say hard pass.

Maple Leafs fans: “We will give u an AHL player drafted in the 7th round in exchange for a top four defenseman and a #1 Goalie. We also need you to take this garbage bag for the next 2-3 years.”

One bad half season for Mrazek and all he’s done in the past goes out the window. Talk about recency bias. Also holl is a solid 5/6 dman. It’s just Toronto needs to upgrade that 4th spot so Holl is gonna be the one to go (most likely). Definitely better than Greene/Chara

Mrazek has never been good lol. Holl isn’t good either. Islanders won’t take on that kind of salary. If you were talking about Dermott maybe I could see it. But I don’t like him either.
