I think the islanders could get more for varlamov, especially if they are retaining

Like the LA trade as a Leaf...even if LA gave up less. But now way the Isles do that trade. Buy out Mrzarek at 1m and resign Campbell.

They really dont need much fixing. The team was excellent this year and played well in most of their playoff games. The issue was they played vs Tampa.

Just move out Mrazek and probably Holl too. Run it back

NYI declines

if varly would waive for toronto he'd probably be there already.

need goaltending and better depth scoring.

Oh hey look, someone sensible.

Their depth scoring was fine. And Campbell was great

would have liked to see more from their depth forwards

jack campbell - 3.15gaa and .897 sv%, so not great.

Not enough for Varlamov. Abramov is far from a sure thing, and the Islanders aren't just going to retain $1.25M for nothing.

They were against Tampa, his SV% was about the same as Vasi in that series. in the playoffs they had 13 points from their depth

As for depth, they have 15 players with over 20 points and 9 with over 30 (10 if you include Kase who missed 32 games)

yea vasy sucked that series. so did campbell. if the leafs had an average goalie they'd make round 2, maybe even the ecf.

No Vasy didn't suck that series (outside of maybe game 1), they are both just some of the highest scoring teams in the league. I watched all the games, you are looking at numbers

i watched a few of the games and they both sucked.

Well then it seems we've reached a wall in this conversation.

yea. a difference of opinion i guess.

Yeah so they would probably trade him to another team for more than your offer

whats my offer?
