Trade Deadline Recap: JG Pageau Acquired, Zach Parise Deal Falls Through, Isles-Rangers Preview No Sleep Til Belmont: A show about the New York Islanders

    • Hockey

Arthur and Mark break down the details of Lou Lamoriello’s first major deadline deal as Islanders GM, acquiring Jean-Gabriel Pageau from the Ottawa Senators, and discuss the team’s strength down the middle now with Barzal, Nelson, Pageau, and Cizikas, and how consistency throughout the organization has changed the feeling around the team and the league.
Then, the guys talk about the Zach Parise deal that almost happened, but was likely derailed due to Andrew Ladd’s contract and the Wild not wanting to retain as much salary as needed. And, they take a look around the rest of the league at some of the other intriguing deals that went down on one of the busiest trade deadlines in history.
Plus, a discussion about what it’ll be like for Andrew Ladd to be back with the big club, likely for the rest of the season, as a healthy scratch, and how he can make the most of things while he’s there.
Finally, the guys close out the show with a preview of tonight’s game against the Rangers at The Coliseum, with the two teams separated by just 6 points in the standings, and JG Pageau making his debut, along with their predictions for the final score.
