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
Bern, is this you incognito, making this proposal?

Isles will have to steal Lou's phone or accept a basis of Barzal for Kadri is a terrifying possibility. Getting Conroy to block Lou might work just as well though.

Rather not do the calgary proposal, but I don't think Conroy would block Lou for it.

I don't see why Islanders should trade Barzal. With him out of our line up seems like Lee-Horvat-Pageau have made up a pretty good line, so along with the Nelson line, we could use Barzal-Duclair-??? to give us 3 lines that can score.

They are winning without him.
Hard to even know if this thread is serious but I’ll engage nevertheless.

Barzal is a cap dump? That’s one of the worst takes I’ve read lately and that’s saying something. You’re disappointed with his play? Sure. I feel the same way but he’s still a valuable commodity even at his cap hit.

As for the “winning without him” reference: Patty Roy is a very good coach and the Isles are not devoid of talent. They’re in the mushy middle and can be competitive on any given night. Regrettably for this Isles fan, they also have no realistic chance at competing for a Cup this season.

Barzal won't be traded. guy potted 80 points last year on the Isles pop gun offense and PP. The team is playing better lately from their dismal start. Long season and #13 will certainly come back hungry to help the team. Put him back at center and let the kid run.
