I agree we had a good discussion going...btw Clarkson would look good on JT's line but what would they want for him?

Yup another losing streak here we come. We were getting to close to the playoff spot it made Wang nervous

Joenssu was tearing up Europe... He has the skill and size to be great, his biggest issue was skating... Hopefully that improved

I was hoping to get a good look at him during the early part of the season based on his performance against Team USA. I imagine he's still a little ways away from actual game action.

Losing Grabner is obviously a huge hit to the team. The timing is interesting after being publically called out by Cappy.

you would think he would be able to contribute as much if not more than ulstrom

i wouldnt give up strome or reinhardt, ill tell you that much.

id do something along the lines of neilsen, streit/vis, & a 2nd/3rd

tearing up europe doesnt get me all that excited.

"to be great"??? thats prob a stretch. if he is anything more than a 4th liner id be shocked.

There's no way I'd even consider dealing them both and just the thought of dealing one makes my eye twitch!

I agree with you with this coincidence. Something dont smell right here. I did not see anything in Sunday game to show an injury.

Jesse is a bust. He hardly did anything with the Islanders before so there is nothing to get excited about here. Europe also has a different type of game hell I think I can tear it up there

It would be interesting to see what the Devlis would want for him...

Would you give the Devils Nino for Clarkson?

Getting my trade juices flowing. What about this deal?

To NYI: Zach Bogosian, Evander Kane

To WPG: Strome, Reinhart, 2014 First rounder, one of Lee/Nelson

Discuss.

EEK I am all for change and all but even I think that might be to much to give up

Iw ould in a heartbeat but something tells me the Devils are going to want a lot more than that

- kear20

eh, id try to leave him out of the equation and play the hes-a-rental-player card therefore his value decreases.

You're on the right track but I would concentrate getting Kane if he is available. Reinhardt is signed for 3 years while Bogasian entry level contract is up so he'll want big bucks...you might want to start with Nino, 2014 1st rounder and either Lee or Nelson...

EEK I am all for change and all but even I think that might be to much to give up
- kasperrko

Swap out Strome and insert Nino if you include Nelson. Its a lot to give up, I know. But you can't get if you don't give. Kane and Bogosian would instantly make this team much better and are young, so they can be signed long-term and run with JT, Hamonic, etc. I'd love to move Bailey or KO out instead, but the Isles would be lucky to get a bag of pucks for those two.

- kear20

Seriously? He's 28 and coming off his first and only truly productive season, he's good but I'm not giving up top prospects for him.

- kasperrko

Agreed..

lord have mercy!!!! thats A LOT...thats 4 first rounders.
- LetsGoIsles

Four first rounders for two. Two top four guys. Its a lot, but I think this organization needs a bit of a shake-up. Maybe you substitute Grabs in there for Nelson/Lee?
