Mathew Barzal
DOB 5/26/1997

Not crazy about the contract.

Seattle
Eduard Sale + 2025 2nd Round pick

Vancouver
Tom Willander + 2025 2nd Round pick

Calgary
Samuel Honzek + 2025 2nd Round pick

Utah
Dmitry Simashev + 2025 2nd Round pick

Winnipeg
Colby Barlow + 2025 2nd Round pick

Vancouver might not have the cap space.
Seattle will get Gourde and Tanev off the cap next year.
Winnipeg will get Iafallo,Appleton off the cap next year.

This is a cap dump for the Islanders

Love the player but we don't need him and that cap space is nowhere to be found. Lastly not giving Willander up in any deal unless floored as we value him and his ELC when he arrives to the show.
Elias Pettersson (11.5M) + Williander + 1st + Cap Piece (do Nucks have a 4-5M player they want to move?) for Barzal + Dobson?

None of those deals make sense for NYI. They'd be looking for a 1st back on top of an A prospect because a Barzal trade means a rebuild.

What if this gets into a bidding war. Could we pry away Lambert?

Honestly, I don't think so IMO. And that's not because I think Lambert is some amazing prospect or anything. It's for the same reason you even made this thread in the first place.

I would be very hesitant to trade a huge package for Barzal due to his contract and the value he brings in comparison.

I think the Jets try and re-sign Ehlers, Appleton, and Pionk (as UFA's), and they'll need to also give raises to Vilardi and Samberg. And they might also try to extend Connor as well (if possible) and that will take a raise as well (although starting in 2026).

The Jets are winning with a more balanced approach, and if Barzal brought a little more value for that $ I could possibly see it (a little more offense, better defense, etc.). But if he also did those things, you likely wouldn't be looking to move him either.
