Sujet: Nick Foligno Out Day-to-Day
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>Palmieri is significantly better than Foligno, and is basically a 3rd liner who is a power play specialist at this point. Of course the Leafs had interest in him, he'd be a solid depth add, that doesnt mean they werent interested in Hall then or now. the islanders chose Palmieri because Lou is an absolute sucker and not a good GM and bought hook line and sinker when NJ added one of his good ol boys in zajac to go with him (zajac is very bad so this is hilarious).
the simple fact that Hall is still very good is why dubas would be interested in him</div></div>

Out of all the available rentals, palmieri was by far the best fit for the isles to play with barzal. You’re over exaggerating on zajac because you don’t like Lou. A top 6 winger and a 3rd liner with retained salary for a late 1st and AHL. Depth players. Devils fans hated the trade - but Lou is a sucker!
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Travis Zajac, acquired by NYI, is an average middle six veteran centre, not a whole lot stands out here but should be fine.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ForsbergForVezina</b></div><div>Trying to find some common ground with the guys who are in charge. I’ve liked Zajac a lot the last two games. He’s smart, wins battles and I think he’d support Barzal and Eberle really well. You know I’d love to see Beauvillier up with those two again as much as anyone, but that’s literally never going to happen lol. Plus Zajac can take faceoffs which is a plus. Which Beau, Leo and even Palmieri can’t really</div></div>

Komarov has won 39% of his faceoffs - I really don’t think the faceoffs are that big of a deal. Barzal is at 44%, let him continue to work at it. I’d rather have the better player who doesn’t take faceoffs than a worse player who is only slightly better at faveoffs.

I like the 2nd and 3rd lines you have, but I think it’s better to maximize barzal’s skillset. One of wahlstrom/beau/palmieri should be on his lw

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ninefoot</b></div><div>Yeah I agree they looked gassed as hell out there tonight, really flat. I just think Pageau could be a real offensive threat but if those first 2 lines click there's a lot of pressure off of him to do so. Also I hear you on the Wahlstrom front, even if there's a risk (which is basically 0) of someone claiming Johnston Wahlstrom needs to get into games the instant he is fully good to go.</div></div>

Pageau’s offense comes from his good shot and forechecking ability . He’s nothing special in transition. Let that line play like grinders and bailey should be able to complete some high danger passes.

I don’t think wahlstrom and pageau have special chemistry together, the line is obviously good but it’s good because wahlstrom drives play and can generate scoring chances on his own.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>islanders15</b></div><div>i completely agree, but if wahlstrom gets benched for, nothing? im sure trotz will find away to cut his TOI.

In all seriousness though, i'd rather see Beau on line 1 than Palmieri.</div></div>

Maybe , but Dobson played 16 min tonight. All at even strength. I feel like trotz is on a game to game basis with Dobson’s ice time. As long as he’s playing every game I don’t care


Yeah I’d rather see beau with barzal, but palmieri isn’t a bad option either. I think it was you I had the conversation with that any player who comes to the isles won’t look as good because of this system. Fans think palmieri, forsberg , rackell are going to come in and have huge impacts. Then they sh*t on guys like beau and wahlstrom when they go a few games without a point
