Roster/Rumors/Speculation/Trade Talk - 2024-25: Re-Tool, Re-Group, Re-Mix, Re-Build

[miscs75]

So basically what you’re saying is blame the Mets for the Islanders having a terrible power play. I’m all for it.

Something to consider down the road. I believe we could send Varly to Bridgeport for “conditioning” to prolong this anyway. I don’t think I’d jump to the conclusion that Hogberg has totally usurped Varly yet, I’d probably lean towards waiving him. I don’t think we should let 2 starts and spot relief as great as they’ve been be the reason to get rid of a long term proven NHL goalie.

Hard call to make

Penguins just waived Jarry. Would have to think they’d be considering Hogberg if we waive him.

Real Kyper's Trade Board 2.0: Tight races and interesting UFAs

Usually at the midseason, the contenders and pretenders begin to separate and we have an idea who's going to buy and sell on the trade market. Not so in 2024-25, where the standings are tight, especially in the Eastern Conference. Nick Kypreos updates his trade board, with a look at the market...

OMG. How much did Lou pay Kypreos? I don't care what Mayfield's plus minus is, he has regressed big time. Please TOR, take him off our hands. (And I was a big fan of Scott).

Jarry has been other worldly bad.

100% they’d pick up Hogberg for nothing. Frankly the Pens are going nowhere anyway but Dubas needs to rearrange the deck chairs so it looks like he’s doing something.

Regressed?
No, he’s always been who he’s been
If he was left handed? Would’ve never made it past the AHL
Yes, he’s big, he’s right handed, somewhat physical
As for playing hockey? The puck is a hand grenade to him, he’s an icing machine and really not that smart

I’d certainly like to see our GM rearrange something to at least let us know he’s trying !

Mayfield has been a good warrior and I say this still having respect for him, but he is skating with two cinderblocks on his feet this season. He isn't beating anybody to any pucks. His race win % is zero. It's tough to watch. Every play he makes is a reach while standing still. It's only going to get worse from here.

 

[Chockey22]

Mayfield’s best days are certainly behind him, and if Toronto is offering something decent for him, I’d be good with moving him. However, one thing I will say in his defence is that I think he is very tough to play against. Unlike other softies on our D core, he does not lose board battles cleanly, he’s good at pinning guys and moving the puck away from trouble. Now, it often ends up iced or off the glass and out, but sometimes that’s an ok play.

 

[SI]

No way, should they trade Mayfield and if they did they should not eat any $ either.
What type of return are we talking about - because it won't be a first.
The team should look to compete next season and Mayfield will be part of the solution.

 

[Cotton Eye Joe]

Jets looking to acquire a top 6 forward, preferably a center.
Would the Islanders possibly move a player like Nelson or Barzal or another player?
What price would it take?
Jets top young players would be Perfetti, Kupari, Heinola, Stanley.
Top prospects: Yager, Lambert, Chibrakov, Salamonsson, Barlow.
1st round pick.

Yager or Barlow works for me in exchange for Nelson

Chevy is pretty conservative though so I doubt it

The 16th Place Trophy is ours!

And Lou doesn't rebuild so this door is sealed shut before it even opens.

 

[seafoam]

I think Palmieri would be a nice fit in WSH and they have a lot of prospects to boot. Maybe they would be interested in a Varlamov reunion, Lindgren has struggled this season.
