If he’s traded, Dadonov can’t play the rest of the season.

I would love this for NYI. As a Michigan fan, Brisson is a beast. But I can't see Vegas doing this. They need their prospects and 1st round picks given their cap situation.

I'd offer Dadonov, a 2nd, and another mid-round pick for Hickey and Panik.



I thought he only couldn't play in the playoffs. There seem to be conflicting statements floating around.

that’s why i have him as a scratch, wanted to keep the cap hit on there but he wouldn’t play

I just looked it up again and I now have no idea.

i’d do that too but seravalli mentioned the asking price from teams has been a 1st+, and the islanders would prefer the more nhl ready asset in brisson than the potential of the 2023 pick i’d think

Play Koivula and Hutton every game moving forward and determine if they are NHL players or just good AHL players.

Yeah but I don't think that's what Vegas ends up giving up. They can ride this out and hope they win enough to squeeze into a playoff spot, and then activate everyone in the playoffs. Or, they can move Dadonov now and make it a lot easier to activate players in the regular season to get to the playoffs. I think they have a little bit of leverage. In this case, I'd just take the mid-round picks. We need them anyway.

And like I said, I'd love Brisson, I just don't see Vegas giving him up.
