Who knows if it will happen or not? Snow probably hasn't really figured it out yet himself, but I bet you for SURE he will be listening to trade offers, and keep insisting he won't trade him until he actually decides (if) to pull the trigger on an offer.

Isles with their tight internal budget, rely very heavily on cheap kids.
They let Parenteau go when they would not meet his $4m salary demand, replacing him with Boyes $1m salry
Nino is the isles top prospect and they'd rather pay him $900,000 in 2013-2014, then pay an older player $2m-$3m.
