Weekes: Four Islanders moves coming

[seabass45]

“I wouldn’t be shocked to see at least four” is quite a hedge when three transactions will definitely be made.

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

Barzal to the wings for Bertuzzi, Wallinder and 2023 1st

Bertuzzi - Kadri - Lee
Beauvillier - Nelson - Palmeri

Vrana - Larkin - Raymond
Perron - Barzal - Copp

Crap offer for Barzal. Bertuzzi is 1 season from ufa, Wallinder is nothing special and the first may not even be top ten. Spare parts won't work.

 

[miscs75]

No but he still has quite a bit of value even as a rental. Just not Dobson value.

If only they’d understand that. The asks are beyond insane for Miller. Dobson and Barzal are completely off the table.

Thats pretty reasonable.

 

[pockets]

Can’t wait for all this Kadri speculation to finally come to an end so we can move onto criticizing Lou for his awful moves

 

[spockBokk]

C’mon Lou, you know you want Jake Gardiner….

Barzal to the wings for Bertuzzi, Wallinder and 2023 1st

Bertuzzi - Kadri - Lee
Beauvillier - Nelson - Palmeri

Vrana - Larkin - Raymond
Perron - Barzal - Copp

Bertuzzi is vaccinated? Even if he was, not interested in that offer for Barzal.

C’mon Lou, you know you want Jake Gardiner….

The Leafs need Gardiner back for the playoffs.

 

[SI90]

Last year every isles move was announced September 1st. Let’s hope Lou is a bit quicker this year

 

[Jumptheshark]

1) Noah Dobson signed
2) Alexander Romanov signed
3) Kieffer Bellows signed
4) Nazem Kadri signed

5) Eklund breaks the news

the need to trade one contract

the need to trade one contract

Beauvillier out with knee surgery until April. Just in time for the playoffs.

 

[Sparksrus3]

This is like the longest running soap opera…

Just make the moves Lou!

Lou retired . He is just waiting to announce it

 

[Brodeur]

Miller is worth more then Gretzky, McDavid, Mario Lemieux and Air Force One combined.

Air Force One did prevent Joe Sakic from becoming a Ranger!

On a side note, Nelly stompin in his Air Force One’s will not be allowed to be included in the deal.

PPG gritty top line winger, 6 foot 4 SHL defensive player of the year and 2023 unprotected 1st (likely lottery pick) is spare parts?

Bertuzzi isn’t vaccinated. For the 75th time, Lou won’t take unvaccinated players. Even then, it was also stated he’s one year away from being a UFA. Barzal is about as important to the Islanders offense as Seider will be to the Wings defense, it just doesn’t work for the Islanders.

was working a construction project at Hunter College Nursing School in the mid 1990s. Maybe 24th or 25th street east side of Manhattan . Anyway Harrison Ford was filming some scenes for a movie for about a week . We were invited to lunch every day. Had steak and shrimp etc etc all week . Been fat ever since .. LGI

 

[Siludin]

This is a good trade for both sides:

To Islanders: Miller (with 40% retained this season, then signed to 7 year $7.85 million per season), PoolMan, Foccht, Briesbois, 2024 4th

To Vancouver: Dobson, 2023 2nd, 2025 3rd

why do these proposals always include so many moving pieces

Bertuzzi is .67 PPG and has never had a PPG season . Don’t turn him into the next JVR with exaggerated stats. He is a good player though

Because that's how you win trades on NHL22.

 

[WingsToPick4th]

Bertuzzi is .67 PPG and has never had a PPG season . Don’t turn him into the next JVR with exaggerated stats. He is a good player though

he had 62 pts in 68 games last year - sorry 0.91 PPG and he brings way more than just scoring.

It is for a young number 1 center yes.

 

[isles55]

Lou waited until September to announce everything last season. I wouldn’t hold my breath.

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

Bah gawd! That's Kevin Weekes' music.

Can someone photoshop Weekes coming out to this

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Here we go!!!!!!! Can’t wait to see these moves in order to get Kadri signed to a 8M contract
