Well seeing as you're giving up 2/3 of the Islander's second line, as well as 2 of your potential top 3 centers, I'd say it's a bit of an overpayment to beef up an already productive line.
Also, the 1st round pick the Isles give up is likely to be a lottery pick, in a deep draft. Would you rather have Sharp until he hits UFA, or one of Mackinnon/Jones/Barkov/Lindholm/Monahan/Drouin/Shinkaruk/Lazar/Pulock for 7+ years?
