Love Barzel however here's the problem.
The Isles have 3.9 mil left and the kids scoring and the eyeball test makes him a 6-7 million and if days were better, an 8 million player. Calgary has 1 mil left. No combination of trades will free up enough for Calgary to then sign him.
Put another way Calgary and the Islanders don't have enough cap space combined at 4.9 mill to sign a Barzel. No direct trade combination works for either team. If Calgary say sells say a Hanafin, for just picks to get space, there's still no promise an Islanders trade would still happen.
