There has been speculation given the New York Islanders cap crunch that maybe they would entertain trading Semyon Varlamov. That is something the blue and orange should not do.

The New York Islanders currently have two starting goalies in Varlamov and Ilya Sorokin. Unless they get an offer they can’t refuse they need to keep it that way.
