Just a small prediction here but I see Islanders sending down Wahlstrom since he can't be picked up on waivers(but he basically will be back up by mid season)
Rumor: Islanders looking to trade players

What's the plan/consensus for next year on the 4th line? Re-signing the vets again or going with youthful promotions?
Or too early to tell?

Toronto is waiving Engvall and Brooks before the season begins. I think they're both NHL caliber players. Snag one of them.
Martin, Cizikas and Clutterbuck are all signed for this season, although Martin looks to be injured so one of Johnston, Panik or Komarov will probably temporarily take his spot. Clutterbuck is a UFA at season's end and although I actually wouldn't mind letting him go I see a him signing a longer term but lower caphit deal like Martin

Now can you do this for every team? Lol very helpful thank you from all the waiver nerds.
Panik hitting waivers seems a little unlikely no? They just signed him I thought…
Aho would be a get for any team for sure. Nhl ready just stuck behind a stacked d
Lou looking to acquire something for serviceable 13th forwards like Leo/Dalcole and probably Hickey as well. Seems like not much of a market for these guys but who knows

He was part of the Leddy trade(who basically ate 50% of his contract so he is probably the easiest to trade given his caphit). Him and Komarov are somewhat redundant

No one is taking Panik, he was cap dump already. He’s got another year on his contract.
This website proposes a Juolevi for Bellows swap?
Could trading Olli Juolevi for Keiffer Bellows make sense for Canucks and Islanders? - Nucks Misconduct

His caphit is basically slightly above the amount it takes where you can bury him in the AHL(and not have (the bulk of) his caphit count) so for a team looking for a cheap bottom 6 option he might be attractive). I am not expecting the world for him maybe like a 5th or 6th

Maybe but Canucks don’t need wingers. They need RD and 4th line centres.
doesn’t make sense so likely Benning does it
We need depth at all positions, except perhaps LD and G. Who are the starting wingers on our 4th line? Highmore, Di Giuseppe and/or Lockwood? Giuseppe is like a 14th forward and Lockwood shouldn't be in the NHL. He's way too small for the game he plays and is going to get injured like 5 games in.

Islander's cap situation is pretty intact, only way I see them trading Komarov with a pick to get rid of his contract is if they have another trade lined up adding more salary
Now if Ottawa came and said hey if you put Komarov on waivers we will take him, I can see Islanders accepting that. Another possible deal I could see is if you guys had a contract we could bury in the minors.

Agree with most of that except Giuseppe being a 14th foward. He’s been excellent and is a 4th liner

Don’t forget Motte also coming back. The one player I’m not counting on is Sutter. I don’t think he ever plays again.

He will probably clear if he gets waived. It’s hard to find a more insignificant player. He is working hard every night, but his toolbox is empty.

Kovalchuk: A spy?
Genuinely no idea why we brought him back given our depth already. Management must love that dude.

A LW goon, you say?
Re: Komarov - I think Vegas would be able to take 2.7m of Komarov's salary with Tuch going on LTIR. He's kind of what they're looking for. The only problem would be getting rid of that contract later on in the year.
