New York Islanders Could Have Matched Matt Duchene Trade Price

One target that New York Islanders fans wanted at the trade deadline was Ottawa Senators centre, Matt Duchene. It’s clear why, with his over a point per game pace, his ability to produce on the power play and his incredible skill in the faceoff circle.

But three days from the actual trade deadline, Matt Duchene was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets for two picks and two prospects.

The Senators were able to pull Vitallii Abramov, Jonathan Davidsson, a 2019 first round pick, and a 2020 first round pick (conditional) from the Blue Jackets. If we take that trade package and use New York Islanders prospects whats a comparable offer, and should the Isles have made it?
