Sujet: If Lou wasnt a coward

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockeypal</b></div><div>These are DESPERATE moves Kessel is literally just Bailey but cheaper, Kadri signing would be bad in 2 years these are very bad moves for the future a better move would’ve been trade Bailey with a 2nd and Wilde and then sign Milano. Lines would be Milano- Barzal- Wahlstrom, Lee- Nelson- Beau, Bellows- Pageau- Palmieri, Parise- Cizikas- Clutterbuck</div></div>

If Bailey cost a 2nd and Wilde he would have been moved. Kessel is 100x the shooter that Bailey will ever be. Even if point totals are close, Isles need to add goals to the lineup. Just a disappointing offseason from the Isles in terms of what Lou made seem like would happen

Sujet: If Lou wasnt a coward

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMBL</b></div><div>"I do not care about years 4-7 of the Kadri contract"
You make it sound like Lou didn't offer Kadri 7mx7 and he just picked Calgary over them at that dollar value.

"This team's window is now. We have some nice pieces who will be here for a long time (Barzal, Dobson, Sorokin, Pelech, Pulock etc.) but a majority of this core's window is now and will be off the books in a couple more years. Should have maximized this window at at all costs. To get as close to a Cup Final as we twice were without seriously improving the roster is a crime."

Those guys that you mentioned are going to be there for a long time are the core.</div></div>

1) Lou said the cost to move a contract was too high. So no, he couldn't offer Kadri $7x7 because there would have been no space for Dobson/Romanov that followed

2) I said we have some nice pieces, but the rest of the core (Lee, Nelson, Palmieri, Beauvillier, Pageau, Mayfield etc) are like 1-3 years from being off the books. Then take into consideration the ages of the players I just mentioned. They need a kick in the ass now to try and get them over the hump before it's too late

Kadri and Kessel for shedding Bailey isn't desperate. This roster can win a Cup

Sujet: Trade w NYI

It's too late for the Isles to add a piece here. They'll stick with what they have and hopefully be in a spot come the deadline to add some pieces after the $2.5m in cap space accrues

Sujet: My Offseason Assessment

Romanov isn't <em>exactly </em>a puck mover. Erasing a 45 and 39 year old from the backend doesn't earn any awards either. This team needed a boost up front and Lou failed to do that. Basically putting the blame on Barry with the moves he made. Offseason is a failure IMO

There is no way Barzal gets that much. I think $10m on an 8 year deal will be pushing it tbh

Deal came in about where it was expected. Just annoyed it took this long to announce **** we already knew was coming. WHERE ARE THE HOCKEY TRADES FOR FORWARDS @ LOU

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Warpbox</b></div><div>To be fair I’ve seen a few Isles fan trades for Miller that are also awful. (Not as bad as whatever the Miller for Dobson, Raty, and a first was though)</div></div>

I think 1st+Beauvillier+Mayfield is about all the Isles could do, and we would need Schenn coming back as well for that RD hole we are opening up. Not perfect trade partners but Beau and Mayfield can both help you win now, or be flipped for more futures.

Pull out Dufour and add Schenn we have a deal. Isles fans will tell you that's too much. Canucks fans will tell you it's not the right pieces. But really that's about what the isles can/should offer

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>c_thompson</b></div><div>I'm not sure why you think Toronto has no leverage. Sandin doesn't have arb rights, so unless he gets offer sheeted (which obviously hasn't happened yet) his options are basically accept an offer or sit out.

It's insane that in nearly every other situation where there's an unproven RFA with no arb rights, the sentiment would be that the team is in control. But somehow, when it's the Leafs, people are like "yeah the team is screwed, have to trade him".</div></div>

The cap situation is the reason why people are saying they’re screwed

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles5513</b></div><div>Islanders decline. Miller is almost 30 and doesn’t fit the Barzal/Dobson/Sorokin time line</div></div>

Idk if they decline. The teams window to win is the next 3-4 years with this core. By the end of that time a lot of the “bad” contracts will have expired and we can add some new faces to go along with the guys you mentioned. I want a legit top-6 add more than I want air. Miller fits our style of play. I’d do this **** it

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>Dvorak would still be the 3C for Vancouver so I doubt it.

Also think you're low on both Romanov and Dobson contracts. Friedman said that Romanov will come in at around 3 mill, Dobson will be a "big number"</div></div>

I heard those. Assuming those numbers are true it implies both guys are coming in with term. Not necessarily a bad thing I just don't see how Lou could have clamored for "hockey trades" and "improving the forward group" just to roll out the same lineup. Sickening actually.
