It would be a very Islanders move to sign Pavelski

Please give him dollars and term.....

I dont mind players like that to fill certain holes if team spends on more premier holes to fill, biggest need is C & sniper

Don't be surprised if the centers you see now are the centers we start the year with. If they think Cizikas can replicate his 20g season with more minutes and better linemates then he's probably your 3C next year and Fritz will be 4C.

They need to add goals and frankly I don't care what position carries the load

Yeah a guy with 89 goals over the last three seasons would be terrible

#NHLJets C Jack Roslovic, a Columbus native, has fired his Columbus-based agent Ken Robinson, who has represented him for more than six years. Roslovic asked Winnipeg for a trade at least once last season, sources told The Athletic, because of a lack of role/playing time. 1/2

I had to look Roslovic up.

Casey as a 3C would not be outrageous. It is about adding goals regardless of what position carries the load.

I have always liked L'il Joe and just for his leadership skills alone, a three year deal would be worth it. He is tough as nails and plays the game the way a few Islanders need to learn; (cough) Bailey! I don't see him leaving SJS, but if he does, I'd want him in an Isles jersey! Ben, it is so good to have a writer blogging here for the Islanders. Haven't had one since Dan was here for a drink of coffee.

35 years old. NO!!!!!!!! We already have under contract Boychuk, Ladd, Filppula, Komarov not to mention guys in their low 30's or soon to be such as Martin, Clutterbuck etc.. The Isles need to get younger and cheaper so they can go after big time UFA. Need to stop the band-aid solution mentality. The Isles need top end scoring talent. Spend 7-10M on 1-2 players and then start dumping the tweeners and have some ELC guys.

He's UFA but right bout others

I would consider trading Bailey if team needed more cap space or obtained player/players that have better potential

Every offseason like 80% of the fanbase screams about "going after a big time UFA" and every offseason no big time UFA signs here. Don't get your hopes up.

One of the prerequisites to being an Islanders fan is having, at least, once typed some variation of the phrase "Islanders need to add a top line scoring winger for Tavares Barzal and a top-4 puck moving defenseman"

Most likely not trading their first round pick next season.

I read somewhere Capuano is good with young players, that's why Ottawa wanted him. Good with young players??? Teaching them to handle sitting in the press box?
