Dream Scenario:

Sign Stamkos
Sign Vessy
Draft 2nd overall


Top 9 forwards
Stamkos
ROR
Kane
Vessy
2nd overall pick
Eichel
Skunk
Fasching
Larsson
- ImThatGuy

So fit that together for us line wise...assume they get Laine with the 2nd

If we miss out on Stamkos and don't get a top 3 pick we still need to make some moves. No way this roster stays the same for next year. If it does we are at beat a 1 and done playoff team that sneaks in.

Okposo is someone is consider. Pretty talented winger to play with eichel. Youll probably have to overpay him but he has been very productive the past couple yrs. We also need to fix the defense. Very important to add a guy to play with risto.

Okposo has made a living off of Johnny T. Most of the Islanders fans I see, tend to say they can't wait for him to leave. We can do better than a 6 year 40 million dollar Kyle Okposo contract...

guys like Ladd, Boedker and others want 6 mill a year, let another team pay those crap contracts we don't need that. Stamkos is the number 1 goal.

I still think Fasching would benefit from a year in Roch..same with Nelson

Side note: There is no question in my mind that people from WGR 550 read this thread. Based on their tweets and show topics, it is almost certain.

I would not be surprised if some of them post here.

Good hope they read this then.

You're all no talent hacks!




That is all.

I'd be fine if they move Moulson and signed Okposo.

Okposo can make a living off Eichel for all I care.

He's a 60 point winger.

Still love to smack Darcy in the mouth for turning down Stafford for Okposo.

You think that's bad, try ignoring Stafford and Dan Catenacci for Filip Forsberg.

That's horrible too.

Ok, I wanted the Isles to win because frank Florida, but did anyone else see that abomination of an officiating job last night?

I was planning to ask the forum, what was the moment (besides 7/1/2007) that the wheels started to come off for Darcy. I think drafting Dennis Perrson. I know sometimes picks fall through, but that guy was not a professional hockey player by any measurement. It was horrible timing too.

I remember laughing at this because someone said that he would be a different player for us as he was coming from an awful team. I think the Panthers or Thrashers or some nonsense. Either way pretty sure he never scored a goal for us...could be wrong, I'm not checking. Worthless.

Kane - Stamkos - ROR
Reinhart - Eichel - Laine
Fasching - Larsson - Vesey


Edit - The best thing about it is, if you have a guy having a bad night on draws, flip the center position.

if we get stamkos and vesey, im fine with taking the best lhd at 8/9

this year at the deadline the hawks moved a first for ladd

last year they moved a first and a second


in 2014 they moved a second, a third, a fourth and a fifth

you can't sustain high level of play when you deplete your prospect pool

they better hope they can fill the bottom half of their roster with vets on the cheap
- homiedclown

Being able to snag Panarin was pretty huge for them
They're also one of the finalists for Caggiula
When you're that good, u can find good talent in ways other than the draft

Good news everyone, the draft lottery is in 5 days... Who's excited?
