I would be going hard after Strome or Nelson. Nino i would pass on, how good could he be? He is a swiss hockey player. All kidding aside how physical is he. I don't think DeHaan is overly big either. Little or no chance we can land Hamonic and Nelson????

I don't think you ever rule anything out with this group (Wang& Snow) running the show

Oilers suck. We have 7-8 good players, but those players are not playing a system. They're running around like chickens with their heads cut off. And I'm sick of hearing pre-game interviews where Krueger says something like, "Team X plays this way, so we have to adapt to their style of play"... WTF!!! This is one major reason why we suck! (frank)ing reactive idiots! Create a system, and stick with it.

From and Islanders fan prospective

KO looks like he doesn't want to be here. He also missed practice yesterday
Streit hasn't showed much heart here lately
Bailey IS welcomed here, he had 17 PTs the last 19 gms playing on win last year
Vis cannot be traded, we just got him. It would look bad. More likely to trade Streit
Reasoner is scratched tonight, defensively and PK wise he would be a blessing for he wins faceoffs, very good PKer
Niño isn't going to be traded unless its in a package for like Yaks, we need his size
Nelson, Garth has said he likes Nelson very much. I think he stays

So in my eyes if this trade does happen you're looking at KO reasoner Streit most likely

What if the deal was something insane like Yakupov for Tavares?

No way. We aren't ready to win now, how would Whitney an Hemsky fit
I wouldn't do that even if de Haan wasn't in there and you had a 1st and second.
Niño is a top 5 pick with loads of talent. Nelson has loads of potential for great 2C two-way.
Also islanders aren't taking on salary

i say panic and trade everyone

From your perspective, what would it take from the Oilers to get Bailey? Would a deal like Hemsky and Whitney for Bailey and Streit sound close? Perhaps a pick or a prospect added on either side? I just wanna get a feel for how Islanders fans feel about their players.

The deal suggested is completely one-sided.

However, you mentioned Okposo and Reasoner. I have no idea why the Oilers would deal for them. Streit would make sense, however, but would the Islanders actually want to part with him? He's playing 25min per game right now.

Okposo is not anyone I'm particularily interested in. Seems weak on his skates and really inconsistent. Any deal sending Hemsky away to the Islanders needs to have Bailey coming back, in my opinion. Hemsky is a gifted playmaker and we'd need to at least supplement losing him on the 2nd PP unit. Bailey is quite the adept passer as well and given the chance to play with the talent available, he could breakthrough.

No thank you

While yaks is great, losing JT would be bad... Bad. He literally carries the team by himself

Moulson can only score.

JT needs a robin
Toews-Kane
Stamkos-st Louis
Crosby-malkin-Neal (for power play )
JT-_____

I hope something happens I'm tired of the same story bad d can't score and a powerplay that can't score on the worse pk in the league same story every year

Clearly a troll post. Islanders aren't getting Whitney or Hemsky. You want those 3 guys your looking at Klefbolm, Gagner and MPS
