I'd play Oconnor 3rd line and scratch Carter honestly

isles will be sellers, what does kapanen + blunger do for them? They need picks.

Doubt we do it but hey why not

Isles get the two worse players too. Neat! Hard pass...

Isles are still very much in the race. If you do decide to sell, it will be your pending UFAs Varlamov, Mayfield and Parise. It is hard to move out cap if it isnt an expiring contract during the szn, so maybe that waits. This deal is a pure swap that can maybe help both teams as they make a push.

Beauvillier is on pace for 33; Kapanen for 39.
Isles also lack right shot wingers, so Kapanen could be useful for them.

Isles will be sellers- they have almost no chance at qualifying for the playoffs

If you win your next game, you're 3 points out, but sure, say you're a seller, my point is still valid.
