Yeah but they had to give up a haul of picks. Any contract can be moved for the right price

Some don't like the bo deal and I respect that but to me he's helped take the pressure off barzal and allowed him to play his game without trying to do too much. This team is tied for 2nd while blowing a ton of leads.......so if they figure out the 3rd period they could be ok

Barzal finally has a player he actually meshes with and has some chemistry with.
Terrible deal! FIRE LOU!
There were much better trades for much better players out there. Just ask the experts.

This isles team is without that journeymen vet d man who can eat some minutes and play a simple sound game. Curious why Lou doesn’t aquire someone especially with the many 3rd period collapses. When the isles brought in Boychuk the guy was a beast back there, in every facet of the game. Chara was obviously a miss, but they’re missing that vet presence.

I'm convinced the ads are intentionally awful so you pay for this poop site. This is a terrible way to run a site when it's borderline unusable

#Isles  have acquired Robert Bortuzzo from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for the team's 7th round selection in the 2024 NHL Draft.


I guess there’s the vet dman I just said they didn’t have. Lol

Huh? Why do you say that. I thought Pelech may have suffered a broken wrist but didn't think he was done for the year
I'm more concerned that it is likely Pulock done for thw year, given how quickly he was put on the IR with a lower body injury

Pelech looked like a break but the shot to the leg isn't good either. How long does a broken wrist take to heal?

It varies. 3-4 months is typical but can take even longer sometimes. Of course I'm only guessing it's his wrist based on how he held it going off, so theresxa lot of speculation there. I didn't notice Pulock's injury.

Barzal and Bo will really need to keep up this pace.
