Agreed, if the Isles are happy with that return, this deal would have been done months ago.

It feels like, given the Islanders desire for an equivalent NHL defenseman in return, this will need to be a much larger package, as why would any team make a trade of this magnitude, as basically a lateral move. The Dumba one in particular. Pretty even, in my opinion, but why bother, unless the Wild is somehow convinced that Dumba has peaked.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
