ISLANDERS DECISION: Trade Deadline DRAMA—Will Mathieu Darche Transform the Roster for Success?

Описание: The New York Islanders face pivotal NHL trade deadline decisions as GM Mathieu Darche weighs balancing playoff ambitions with long-term team building. Could Anders Lee or JG Pageau be on the move, and is a blockbuster for a young sniper like Jordan Kyrou in the works? The playoff race heats up, with the Islanders sitting third in the Metro Division and standing out as healthier, faster, and ahead of preseason expectations.

Gil Martin analyzes Darche’s strategy, the challenge of aging veterans’ contracts, and the impact of partial no-trade clauses. Key topics include Islanders’ goal differential, scoring struggles, and the pros and cons of trading prospects or picks for sustained talent. Plus, insight into the team's practice return, the roster freeze, and Blake Comeau’s memorable Islanders moments. Can the Islanders find the right mix to secure home ice and make a postseason run, or is patience still the best play?

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