I think it’s fair, Pulock’s is a great 2-way guy and would be a great partner for Reilly.

As far as the value goes I think it’s at least very close, I know most people undervalue leafs players on this site though so don’t be surprised if year here them say the islanders would never do that lol.

I think it’s depends on how much Lilijegreen is valued. If he still has first round value then it’s fair but if he’s heading towards bust territory it’s probably not enough for Islanders.

how does this help the islanders? I don’t think they would trade their best dman for this.

No way from Islanders.

Isles laugh.

VB, what do you think of Lilijegreen? Do you think he will become the stud top2 défense en he was projected to be earlier in his draft year when he was talked about for the top 3 pick. Or just a solid top 4 D or even not even play in the nhl at all. I see him in a lot of proposed trades so it’s almost like Leafs fans don’t have faith in him anymore. Anybody else wan chimme in?

It’s not that we don’t have faith in him, he will become a top 4 RHD one day, it’s just we need one right now. That’s the thing, it’s what a lot of prospects go through.

He has value, I think he would be able to fetch an early second round pick. The thing is as soon as you suggest “1st round pick”, even if it’s late, people tend to go nuts. It’s not that much of a difference, just like 5-10 spots away.

He has top end elite skating and good IQ but doesn’t utilize his skating well offensively and is good defending on the rush.

Is it safe to compare Lilijegreen to Slava Voynov?

I can’t comment on Voynov as I haven’t watched him in years.
