Islanders: Pulock, Beauvillier, Dobson

Jets: Laine

This trade gives the jets a good top 4 RHD that just entered his prime. Also two way top 9 forward that will develop as a Phillip Danault type player once matured. He's already a great 2 way 30 point center. Then Dobson gives the jets one of the best defensemen prospect in the game. Islanders gets a one trick pony that can hopefully develop his game and not be a defensive liability but the scoring he could provide should be enough to compensate for the goals against his team. Would Islanders consider giving all this for Laine? Because I doubt any team would give more then this.

Nothing on that list is needed by the Jets.

Why would the islanders trade their number 1 dman and potential franchise dman when they just made the conference final. Just very poorly thought out. Pulock for Laine 1 for 1 is a no from the Islanders not because he is worth more then Laine but because he is the focal point of their defence. They also just moved Devon Towes who was a very important piece defensively which will lead to more minutes given to Pulock also do you not pay attention to how Barry Trottz runs his team? He has built a very defensive minded system ( conservative would be a good word to describe it ) Laine would be quickly put into Trotz dog house and no you can’t compare Laine to Ovie as Ovies 2way game is miles better then Laines.

Did you put any thought into the Islanders needs?

Poorly thought out once again. If Pulock was under contract for more than 2 years, he would be a start. But there is no chance the Islanders move Pulock and Dobson in the same deal.

The Jets don't want or need 2nd pairing d-man but a 1st pairing one, without adding the prospects and bottom line/ pairing players. The Jets want quality for quality not quantity as they aren't a rebuilding team.

Lol islandjet Pulock was the number 1 dman on a team that went to the conference final. He’d overtake Morrisey as the number 1 dman on the jets for a joke.

I would say that’s reasonable on both side.

If I’m the Isles, I only move Pulock if I keep Dobson or Vice versa. Giving up both just hurts their depth.

Also not sure Isles have the cap space as they got to sign Barzal still.

I would jump on this deal if I were the jets but the islanders are giving too much imo.

Nylander described it best, I couldn’t agree more
