Two days ago, the New York Islanders pulled off a big trade. They acquired both Kyle Palmieri and Travis Zajac from the New Jersey Devils for two picks (2021 1st and 2022 4th) and two prospects (AJ Greer and Mason Jobst). The Devils held 50% of both player’s salaries.
With Palmieri and Zajac added to the team, the consensus amongst Islanders fans is that Lou Lamoriello is basically done shopping ahead of Monday’s trade deadline.
