captaincowbasher Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Sweet and simple, this is good for both clubs, Sutter to Islanders for Hammonic. "Drop the Mic" Our top 4 looks good now and the log jam that is going to be at center is slightly less jammed. Unless, we win the draft lottery...

ForsbergTheGreat Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Tavares, Strome, Nelson, NIelsen and Barzal in the system. Islanders don't need another center. What they need is a goal scoring winger to replace Okposo and Edmonton fits that bill to a T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captaincowbasher Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Strome will play with Tavares, and Nelson is better on the left side. So Tavares, Sutter then Nielson. Barzal is a couple years away, he needs to get stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captaincowbasher Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Honestly, this trade is amazing for the Islanders, a very good defensive center like Sutter is so invaluable to teams that want to compete for a cup. You need that shutdown guy he could pot 15-20 goals a year. Horvat will be that guy for us so Sutter becomes redundant. If we happen to win the draft lottery, which i'm calling it now- "we will" then McCann needs to switch to LW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last thing the islander need is Sutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where'd Luongo? Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I think we have a better chance of trading Sutter + an asset to the Avalanche for Duchene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captaincowbasher Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 That's fine, i'm not saying Sutter is better offensively, he's way better densively. Nielson get's 50 points and is an even player with 40 hits. Where as Sutter get's you 20 goals a hit a game and is a plus player. They are very different players, one plays a 200' game the other doesn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think that the avs had O'reilly. He's a dream 2nd line center. Duchene would be a nice piece on our roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a very good LD, although thoughts of Duchene flying down the wing with McCann does have some serious appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd Luongo? Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I'm not sure, I don't think it would be since Sutter is a pretty good asset in the first place. I could see it being Pedan or someone like that. I wouldn't trade our 1st obviously but maybe the 2nd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why NYI would want to move a big minute defenceman for yet another center. They already have more centers than they know what to do with, forcing a number to play wing.

Again, do the Islanders have a quality shutdown centerman like Sutter? the answer is no and that's why the deal makes sense. Building a team is the issue, you need different pieces that do different things for a team to win.The Islanders need to move Hammonic and he fits our needs perfectly and Sutter fits the Islanders needs.

You're right. We are lucky Ladd went to Chicago because they would have probably done that trade over the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A young top 2 D-man, who plays a really physical game for Yaks or Ebbs. Not happening. Would you trade Tanev for one of those two? And Hamonic is a much BETTER player than Tanev, because of his physical and offensive talents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where'd Luongo? Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I would trade Tanev for Eberle in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
