Could the New York Islanders Make a Big Trade During the 2023 NHL Draft?



The New York Islanders pulled off a major trade at last year’s NHL Draft, acquiring defenseman Alexander Romanov from the Montreal Canadiens. Could GM Lou Lamoriello have another big move up his sleeve at this year’s draft with all 32 NHL GMs together for a couple of days? Could Josh Bailey be moved? Could the Isles free up cap space or acquire a player to help address their needs?

Plus, two Isles prospects have been invited to play in the World Juniors Summer Showcase which will take place next month in Michigan. We have the latest.

And we have a scouting report on Maxim Strbak, a defenseman the Isles met with at the NHL Scouting Combine.

All this and more on today’s Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.

  1. Only move-lou will put up the 'I'll trade my '24 first for bottom line forward/d man' sign up. And just face the facts-the only moves lou will make are to win now, not for the future while not giving a damn about how close to cap isles are. That's why this rumour is out there. With sj looking to move ek65 and 10 possible team list includes isles says-ek65 for pulock deal is out there. Isles get their dynamic d man who outscored their top scorer by 30 pts. sj gets a steady d man for their re-build. ek65 $11.5 x4 left. Pulock $6.1 x 7 left. Have sj eat aome of difference in next four years and take bailey/sweetener to do it. Gets isles out of last three years of pulock deal that will age badly after four. And with lou in win now mode isles get a pp boost that can get the puck up ice. valrly's $5 mil.is off the books. Would have to keep mayfield cheap if possible. Isles have projected $4 mill. in cap space plus varly/bailey would dump $10 mil. depending if isles have to retain part of bailey deal. Maybe sj will throw in one of the meier picks, first '23 or second '24, to dump karlsson deal? Just a rumour out there.
