If its skinner or duchene give me skinner
Isles NEED a guy like him. (If they cant get panarin)
Easily good for 25-30 goals a season, replaces eberle (and is better)
Im not worried about the 3C as of yet. Fix the top 6 sign lee and skinner or panarin and lehner and im happy
As always gfeat work |

It's a joke someone might give Skinner 9 million. Horrible. |

I’ll take Duchene thank you. Good pp guy, awesome FO guy which the Isles could use. Nothing wrong with being strong down the middle.
Nice job Ben. |

NY is a good place for Skinner who likes to be in the spotlight. I doubt he will sign in a small market again. |

Skinner is another great option for sure, we all understand the over payment to UFA's but thats the risk u take. Bc of the age factor on Panarin/Duchene/Skinner all are worth that possible risk. |

And the Refs are continuing to do a terrible job in the POs letting that Bozak trip go |

Agreed that a top-six winger should be the priority versus a C. Thanks for reading!

His concussion history scares me away. |

Duchene would be ideal. He would take the heat off Barzal and allow him to develop and mature. |

Skinner is a sniper for sure, but he gets hurt a often and is not exactly a fantastic 2 way player. I wouldn't want to give him 7.5 mill a year nevermind 9 mill... hard pass.
thanks for the article Ben.
Any shot you look at some possible trade Targets? |

Nice work with the write up Ben! I wonder if the Isles will need to go the trade route to improve the top 6? I think the Isles can be players for Panarin but some of these players like Duchene and Skinner seem out of reach. |

I think that stems from the concussion he had that one year. You are always a risk for injury if you get a concussion. That being said I don’t see him being another vaske so I will take the chance |

In fairness, any player in any sport can get injured. |

True but concussions are different. Your chances of receiving multiple ones through out your career is high. Unfortunately I know that to well as I had a severe concussions which forced me to stop playing. Now any touch to the back of my head gets me dizzy. |

It's a fair point but even if you go back and look at his entire career, he's only missed truly significant time in one season. His sophomore year. |
