The second article is crazy to think that the Kings would trade Carter, considering we have trouble scoring. But curious to see what Islanders fans would propose to solve both of our problems.

Tavares, Nelson, Hamonic, Leddy, Halak for Kopitar, Doughty, Carter, Budaj, a 2nd and a 2025 7th

Eh first one is an Eklund rumor, second article is a blogger responding to the Eklund rumor and putting Carter on the table because that's the name the blogger came up with.

Realistically I can see Halak for a cap dump + pick, maybe with a lesser piece thrown in from either side. Doubt we'll get a blockbuster with Carter coming to the Island unless Snow has another "screw it" trade like he made for Vanek.

Tavares, Nelson, Hamonic, Leddy, Halak for Kopitar, Doughty, Carter, Budaj, a 2nd and a 2025 7th

Tavares >= Kopitar
Harmonic <<< Doughty
Nelson << Carter
Halak > Budaj
Leddy >> 2nd, 7th

3 of the top 4 players are on the Kings, not a good trade for them

Halak for Green and 3rd round pick?

This is awful for LA and no way in hell would we deal our top 3 players let alone in a single trade. Kopitar and Tavares are close but the rest of that package doesn't get you close to Carter/Doughty. Big time fail.

After reading the thread title, I was sorta expecting a controller disconnected gif.

I mean, it's an Eklund rumor...

Why not just offer a 2094 6th while you're at it?

 

[Viqsi]

Bringing The Former #7 back to the Metro? I knew there was a reason we kept Dalton Prout on the roster...

But yeah, if it's "multiplayer" I imagine the most significant name would be Halak plus a handful of other folks that technically qualify as players but that you wouldn't know unless you're familiar with both rosters.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Bossy and Gillies for Dionne and Taylor

Harmonic <<< Doughty

Tavares is not better than Kopitar.

I think Carter would be a good fit for the Isles and in the Metro.

My guess is that Nelson would need to go the other way, but not sure what the add would be.

If Halak goes with Nelson - $ and value is an obstacle. Seems like u would need other pieces to work out, does Scudero or Greene go the other way to balance out $.

What about value? Who do Isles send over - don't think any youngins would be involved. Is the answer Lee?

So let's See that spelled out see Halak, Nelson, Lee for Carter and Greene
That might be too pricey, maybe swap Prince for Lee- is that enough though?
I do think Carter would reinforce that top 6.

 

[Dr Quincy]

Dustin Brown
Adrian Kempe

for

Halak
Kulemin

Just throwing some pieces together with not much thought put into it, kinda like Eklund himself.

Tavares, Nelson, Hamonic, Leddy, Halak for Kopitar, Doughty, Carter, Budaj, a 2nd and a 2025 7th

That's just awful for the Kings.

 

[scott99]

Tavares is not better than Kopitar.

Maybe not last year, but the 3 previous seasons Tavares was one of the top 5 players in hockey.

 

[mpp9]

Tavares is not better than Kopitar.

He's produced more over the course of his career while not having much of a supporting cast.

 

[KingTux]

Prob Halak for a prospect or a pick

 

[Trolfoli]

LA & NYI struggling with offense, so they're going to get pieces from each other to fix their offenses?

Edit: Wait that blogger's saying Carter for a goalie and a depth forward.

There is more to hockey then just points.

 

[Baymen4]

Halak de Haan + prospect/picks for greene and toffoli

Please discuss and tell me how much of an idiot I am

If the Kings are trading Carter they are going to tank and wouldn't need a goalie coming back.

We will just take Leddy. Thanks

 

[Trolfoli]

We will just take Leddy. Thanks

Leddy's bad luck. Remember that puck that deflected off him. (2014) No good.

 

[Rangers ftw]

That's just awful for the Kings.

Just right over you head, right?
