Last night we saw the New York Rangers trade Michael Grabner to Division rival, and local rival, the New Jersey Devils. If the Rangers and Devils can trade so can the New York Islanders and Rangers, especially because it would benefit both teams.
The Rangers are looking to rebuild and start over to an extent, so many familiar faces have been made available. Captain Ryan McDonagh seems like the perfect fit for the New York Islanders.
The Islanders, who have struggled mightily on defense, could use the benefits of service from a top-four defenseman.
