I'd take him.
What pisses me off is that the Rangers are on that list.
Damn I hate them.

I highly doubt that this is one sweepstakes that the Isles are even close to getting into..

I think CB may have given us a mercy listing.
But, if there is some interest from our Isles in trading for him, good for you Garth.
That kid has got the heart of a lion.

New York Islanders - Garth Snow's rebuilding club may not have the key NHL player to satisfy Boston, a contender in the present. Kyle Okposo -- with his large shoulders and relentless approach, he looks and plays like a Bruin -- is not available. What the Islanders do have is about $137 million in cap space and enough collegiate and junior prospects and future draft selections to make two Kessel trades if they wanted to.
Acquiring Kessel wouldn't exactly blow the Islanders' rebuilding program. He turns 22 the day before the team's season opener. The Islanders drafted his brother Blake, a defenseman at the University of New Hampshire, in the sixth round of the 2007 draft. So they've got that going for them, which is nice
