    Won't make them contenders, but will be tougher to play against.

    I'm not an Islanders fan but they're first place in the hardest division in the league, why are they not contenders?

    I dont understand the waiving of Merkley prior to this ? Anybody have light? You would think this would open a door.

    I agree. The Islanders were already contenders and now they just went up a notch. So long to ice time for Wahlstrom and Bellows for now.

    My fantasy take here: https://dobberhockey.com/2021/04/07/...o-long-island/

    On the contenders side, I think the Isles should be one of the favourites to end up in the finals. They're the best bet to come out of the East, and from the other divisions you have TB/CAR, VGK/COL, and TOR/MTL. The only teams I think that the Isles don't beat are COL and TB, but all it takes is four wins, and they could easily do it.

    I think this shows the value of that 1st round pick these days. That was clearly what NJ coveted for these two and were willing to hold 50% of the salary to get that pick. The players are scrubs and the 4th is a conditional pick that goes to a 3rd if the Islanders make the SC Finals.

    Great move for the Islanders!! Old Lou still has a few tricks up his sleeve.. Funny how he makes a big splash with his old team the Devils!! I don't think the Islanders are done either!!

    I think the NJD GM said he was willing to take a little less to give them a chance at a cup. I would like to think that's true and the "little less" is likely around the 4th round pick. Prolly looking at the Islanders and thinking they'll go farther than another team, so the 4th would be lower, plus with the condition he gives his players a chance and possibly a higher pick!

    There's the domino, I think we get a few more trades between now and Saturday, and then none Sunday.

    I don't believe they have the talent. Yes they have depth and Trotz has them playing tight, but they also lack playoff experience and can't see them beating 2 of Boston, Pittsburgh or Washington. That being said, crazier things have happened.
