Just for the record, it's everyone but this fan base that sees AMac as a 5y/22m player.

I don't quite understand how you think the islanders will even make a round one.

They are five points back with 29 games left. Its plausible though we understand chances are pretty slim.

Didn't say they would..just said by round 2 both teams would be in the same boat....

If Vanek and Isles couldn't make a trade, What would we get for Vanek?

If we trade Macdonald, what would we get for Macdonald?

I'd bet Vanek could bring back a 1st and a decent prospect. Possibly more. Tough call.

For Amac, I wouldn't give a bucket of pucks for him, but I'd bet another team might be willing to pony up a 3rd, maybe a 2nd if we serve drinks.....

I hate to say this but I don't know if I really want to trade Vanek. I am starting to like what I see in that first line. Tavares, Vanek and Okposo are really clicking. If there is a cold day in hell that Vanek will sign here to an extension then there is no choice but to trade him. It would be idealistic to trade him for a nhl ready defenseman and a offensive player.If he really wants to go to Minnesota then for who?

What would Minnesota give us? Det? I feel that Jets will be the best option for us. Byfgulien but I don't want to rid of Vanek. If he stays here for a decade, remain healthy then it will be the best bargain for us.

Why do you hate to say it? I don't think there is an Islander fan out there that wants him traded? He's been part of the most dynamic line we've had in years.

I did... 2 weeks was a little stiff for upsetting a whole fan base even if its only 10 people.
