NYI - DAL

to Islanders:
Keaton Ellerby (79)
Vladimír Mihálik (70)


to Dallas:
Nikita Filatov (82)
Alex Goligoski (71)

I just couldn't pass the opportunity to acquire a winger like Filatov.
He's elite sniper who can also play hit & grind i.e. no matter where I put
him in my line-up he will be effective. His con is great too. He'll stay in Dallas for
a long looong time. Even though, I'm giving up good defensive d-man in Ellerby
I believe I still have at least 8 NHL defensemen in my system so I'm fine with it.
Mihalik for Goligoski is fine with me too since Goli's contract ends this year while
Mihalik's is for the next year too. Good luck Isles and thanks

Looking to move some offense for defense and build outward. Goligosiki for me is a toss in and needed to be moved. He's also looking for a new contract at year's end and won't get one from me.

I'm rebuilding from the net out and these two defenders are an upgrade on what I have already, let alone in the system. Hate to lose Fil but goals will be be found elsewhere. Need to keep them out of my net first.

This trade has been reviewed and rejected by the committee.
