It looks like if we make the playoffs this year the Isles (from the complicated Hamonic trade) don't get our 2nd. Instead, why not trade it to them with the bonus possibility of it becoming a 1st? Kind of like the Russell trade.

There's no conditions anymore. The 2nd in 2019 is the Islanders.
The 2019 2nd round pick was either going to Arizona, if the Flames made the playoffs in 2018, or New York Islanders, if they missed the playoffs in 2018.
If they made the playoffs, the Islanders would have received a 2020 2nd (because the 2019 2nd would have gone to the Coyotes).
They missed the playoffs, the 2nd 2019 goes to the Islanders and the Flames got back a 2019 4th round.
