The silence is making everyone nutty.

The talk of adding Valdy and Dunn would be the icing on the cake as the party to open the new building and continue the quest towards becoming Stanley Cup Champions this upcoming season.

If the Islanders only lock up their own UFAs and RFAs, while adding another top four defenseman and Parise. Too me that will be successful.

Been saying the same and 100% agree. If we can maintain the lineup’s health and limit the injuries for the most part we are contending for the cup again with that lineup imo. Bigger priority to me is a top 4 D man.

What he’s saying is if we don’t get Eichel this off-season was a failure on Lameriello’s part.

To be honest, I want no part of Eichel or Valdy. Not with perfectly healthy players going back the other direction. If want to do picks and some prospects okay. The Islanders cannot afford to give up assets for guys that are one hit away from long term IR.

Not too mention Eichel has an attitude problem. I do not believe he is right for the current team system. But I am sure there are people (fans) that can point to a number reasons why I am wrong.

That's okay. It is what make this board go. If we all agreed it would get boring.

Alright, so what the hell is going on, Lou? All of us would like to know. Arthur Staple reiterates that there are likely deals in place with Kyle Palmieri, Casey Cizikas, Zach Parise, and possibly Travis Zajac. He notes that it has been silent around Ryan Murray, and he says that it is unlikely that the Islanders would part with Anthony Beauvillier in a Vladimir Tarasenko trade. [The Athletic]

I was kidding of course. As talented as he is I’m not a fan of Eichel either. He comes off as a bit of a whiner locker room cancer kind of player. Not to keen with his upcoming surgery either. I wouldn’t mind taking a chance on Tarasenko but I don’t think he’s worth giving up a whole heck of a lot for. I’m a fan of signing Palmieri, Parise, our UFA’s and RFA’s along with a top 4. Zero interest in Travis Zajac. That’s the best plan imo.

The procedure for Eichel is life threatening. I don't see anyone trading for him. When buffalo places Eichel on LTIR they have to sign or trade for a few bad contracts. Nobody is coming there.

Is that better or worse than shoulder surgery?

Shoulder surgery is a life and death coin flip you’re better off just dealing with a bum shoulder. It’s a life threatening fatal procedure.

Pelech files for arbitration. The only Islander that does.

Pierre Maguire blowing all that smoke up his butt probably didn't help.

Have a feeling he probably would’ve been better off taking whatever Lameriello offered him

The arbitrator like most people probably hates Pierre which may hurt more then help his cause.
