Value of: J.G. Pageau

What about it, Isles fans? Would he even be available, and at what cost?

My guess is if Islanders can make a big UFA signing he will be the guy they dump. Probably for like a future 2nd rounder(doesn't have to be 2026). My guess he would be more likely to be traded July 2nd rather than at or before the draft

As it stands now I slot him as Islanders 2nd line center with Horvat and Barzal playing together, Ritchie being weened in as a 3rd line center. If we can sign a big name we split up Horvat and Barzal

If he’s moved it’s without retention (or a useless player contract wise coming back) at all and will probably be at the deadline if retention comes into play at all.

 

[Pure Slaughter Value]

What they said, either a future 2nd at the draft or a 1st at the deadline (because GM's get stupid on trade deadline day)

As long as he’s not on your no trade list, an asset will do.

So, no.

Islanders have never made a big UFA signing. Ever. You know that.
