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

[JTToilinginToronto]

Really? Then what are we gonna talk about?

2025 NHL draft

 

[impaaaaaact]

There is a better package out there than what NJ can give up.

I’m also probably not buying in a year where my best player is out. It’s not like they’re in first or anything, they can just let their players get some playoff experience and run it back next season. Devils might go off the board as trade partners completely now

 

[8EJS9]

Currently holding the #8 overall pick with top 5 a real possibility. If you’ve been watching this team all season, everyone here should be hoping for a top 5 pick. Nelson, Palmieri, Pageau along with Pulock or Pelech all need to be gone for the right price. Someone wake up old bag Lou.

 

[Isles72]

Minnesota or Dallas

You NEED to swing a deal with either team

dallas blew their load on granlund , minney on nyqvist (sorta)

 

[IslesNorway]

dallas blew their load on granlund , minney on nyqvist (sorta)

I think a team like Detroit or even Colorado is far more likely.

 

[SayItAintSoJohnny]

It is absolutely INEXCUSABLE if Lou doesn't move a couple of players, and yes the offers will heat up in the next 72 hours.

Absolutely inexcusable....period.

 

[JJ18Sniper]

I tried to remain optimistic, but I think it's time for a change. It's time for a retool or rebuild.

 

[TeamKidd]

is there anyone left on the keep the faith train except LL? Im not sure even the players are on that train based on their play last night.

a properly executed retool can yield excellent results if we maximize our trades of UFA's and near UFAs, make smart signings and draft well over the next 2 years. Anyone should be available via trade right now. anyone.

 

[Bill Herlyn]

Last night put the dagger into the heart of any thought that the Isles are going to make the playoffs let alone advance past the first round IMO. Team showed little urgency against the Rangers who are not very good and will likely suffer against the better teams that their schedule has them playing over the next 12 games. Trade Nelson, Palms, JGP and either Pulock or Pelech if you can and bring in a new GM/Coach by the draft in late June. Also, don't know what Roy was thinking in having Fasching on the 3rd line instead of either Duclair or Engval! Fasching has one assist in 22 games this year -he is an AHL player at best on any good NHL team and that is not an endorsement of either Duclair or Engval who both have been dreadful this year, but at least they have some skill that they exhibit every now and then.

 

[Top Corner]

He needs to take this opportunity to shed salary on players that can help other teams compete this year like Pelech and Pulock as well as moving UFA players to become leaner for a retool

 

[mm11]

It's time sweet Lou. It's time. Lgi.

 

[saintunspecified]

If LL doesn't sell after getting crushed twice by the cross town rivals, I don't know what will. They are really 5.5 points out given tiebreakers, and they'd have to leapfrog 6 teams. it's time to find someone who will.

 

[TeamKidd]

I actually take the current lack of rumors in the last few days as a good sign. cone of silence.

 

[LeapOnOver]

Don't tell people what to do.

You can't recognize suggestions in English conversation?

 

[LeapOnOver]

Has to mean the phone lines are open now...right? RIGHT?!?!

 

[Osakahaus]

they're closer to the bottom of the standings yet the old fart thinks we can still make it. Reality is that if Sorokin went out, this team IS a lottery team.

 

[duster19]

roy having to consider going with Sorokin again or Skarek. Can’t believe we haven’t brought in a legit backup to help Sorokin. Lou’s been horrible this year

amazes me that we are going to let Lou run this deadline. To get assets for the next GM? Just a terrible season from a front office perspective.

 

[BrockLobster]

"Lou needs to do right by the NYI’s future. This week.

Build a Stanley Cup team…not what we’ve seen for four straight seasons."

Spot on Botta.

Theyre a lottery team with mr 4 goals a game sorokin

 

[Osakahaus]

Theyre a lottery team with mr 4 goals a game sorokin

they werent last season with Sorokin. Maybe consider this roster isnt good enough and we're WASTING this franchises best goalie because Lamoriello refuses to create a hockey team that has
-skill
-goal scoring
-speed
-puck movement
-AVERAGE special teams

Fraudnotta.

 

[Green]

it is beyond inconceivable if Lou is not trying to get rid of everyone who is over 30, but this is also on the owners because why would Lou care about this franchise in 3 years? he knows he is probably gone after this season or next so he probably wants 1 last chance to win a cup and he is going to ensure the Islanders are not going to win a cup for at least a decade if he decides to do nothing
