Trade Chara and Varly for certain. There will be a market for them. YES Problem is I think Varly is playing hurt.

Trade Clutterbuck. He’s exactly the sort of guy that playoff teams covet. YES

Advertise Bailey. Might get a bite. Might not. Your not trading Bailey straight up. He is a sweetener or part of a whole.

Keep Beauvillier. He’s inconsistent, but fast. We need his speed. His inconsistency drives me fargin nuts !!!! I like the kid.

Trade Parise and Greene if they both wanna go. If not, then extend for another year at low cost. Keep Parise Move on from Greene.

Trade Aho. He’s not in the long term plans. The more I watch him I agree

Call up Salo. Give him, Bellows and Wahlstrom the minutes usually reserved for vets. It’ll give them an opportunity to learn, and chastise those who slacked ass up until this point. Agreed

Varly could very well be hurt. Fortunately he’s under contract for next year as well, so he’s not just a rental.

Edmonton needs him sooo bad.

Palmieri and Parise have been fantastic since they began playing together along with JGP. Possibly coincidental, but nonetheless, they have great chemistry. Personally, I wouldn't trade Parise unless he wanted to be moved. Work ethic and leadership at his price point is a great deal. Plus, he's starting to put up points.

Doubt it’s coincidental. Pageau makes everyone he plays with better.

Fair.

I guess a little more if we retained salary for his last year but we’re not doing that.

He has had an off year himself imo but I’m a fan and agree with you.

Last time I poked my nose in the Rangers blog, things were… well… less than friendly. So I figured it best to lay low for awhile.

Should be safe to return, though. Now that your filthy franchise is winning and all.

Pageau is the most valuable forward in this lineup. He can do it all and does make players around him better.

He has the highest TOI for the Islanders offense today.
