Kristian Huselius for Mark Parrish trade proposal?

[NYIsles1*]

Kristian Huselius only has three goals and has been scratched recently in games. He is a left wing which is where the Isles are lacking. Parrish can score 20-30 goals most seasons and makes more than what he has produced for a while now.

Seems like it's inevitable Hunter takes Parrish's spot on the second line and has already. A trade like this can put a natural left wing with size and potential in the lineup and it allows the Isles to move Blake to the right side of Scatchard where he does the most damage for the rest of the season.

Still does not solve the Weinhandl-Papineau-Czerawski-Godard roles for the roster but can settle two lines. Blake cannot produce as a left winger no matter how hard he works.

Kvasha-Yashin-?
Bates-Peca-Hunter
Hueslius-Scatchard-Blake
Asham-Mapletoft-?

I can't say I am a Huselius fan. I think he is a gifted player, and would instantly become one of the most talented guys on our team. But, to me, he lacks grit and drive. On some nights, he reminds me of Czerkawski.

Of course, on other nights, he reminds me of Demitra. Offensively, all of the skills are there, especially for such a young player. So, I'm not saying write him off. I'd just hestitate to make a move to bring in another player who lacks an edge, given the Isles current softness on the wings.

Just out of curiousity, is this an actual rumor somewhere? Or just something you personaly thought up, and wouldn't mind seeing?

I would like to this happen actually myself, but don't want to get any hopes up if it isn't rumored...

No, this is not a trade rumor. I personally thought it up.

Although the reports on Huselius perhaps being available and scratched are from an article.

I specifically wrote trade proposal with the topic and would have included a link with source to avoid confusion. I'm sorry if it was misleading in any way.
************************
Darth: I think the time is coming for the Isles to pay Kvasha the NHL's avg salary after this season or move on and that means they may have to trade him.

Is he worth 1.8 million? I don't think so. Huselius brings the same potential.

Blake, IMHO has a better impact for this team on a nighty basis than Mark Parrish if he plays right wing. I think Hunter's production means Parrish's time (with his salary) may force the Isles to make a deal because they are right-wing heavy.

If Blake fails as a right wing he can leave as an unrestricted free agent after this season. He works hard but he is not scoring as a left winger, his best bet as exactly as he was used last season. Parrish should not be a third line winger with Scatchard and he does not click with Yashin.

I think in the end the Isles have to open the left side for Papineau, Bergenheim, Weinhandl or some players in trades who will help them with skill and some scoring.

Heres my take on trades. When you trade do not trade a player that has value at that time (Ex. Weimer) Trade a player of value yes but not value to the team. Cairns may really be a bad defensemen but he boosts this team. Now Parrish is just another guy on the roster and Timander is a defensemen in the minors with a 1.5 million dollars. Trade Timander and Parry for Satan or Huselius and im one happy man .

Huselius can't even stay in the Florida lineup, no way Milbury should do the Panther a favor by giving them a more established 20-25 goal scorer for a guy still trying to get to that level.

Only 3 goals? That's pathetic.

I'm not a Huselius fan either, but to be fair, this is a talented kid who is simply having an off-year. Not unusual in the development of a young player.

Well he's not worth Parrish, bottom line. Parrish is as inconsistent as they come, but he's got double the goal output of Huselius.

That problem will never be solved.

The Isles missed the boat on acquiring McEachern, the one guy Yashin has had great success with throughout his career, and can not afford any high priced scorers.

McEachern was quoted in an article a while ago saying that Yashin plays a very unusual game and he can be very hard to play with if you don't know how to play his game.

The fact that he was available in the 2002 offseason went overlooked, but that was a very costly mistake by Milbury IMO.

[DaMick]

the best id offer now would be Timander or Papineau for Huslieus

Timander's wasting away in the minors...

Papnieau...well is all about that dreaded "p" word

"potential"

I dont think giving up parrish for huslieus right now would help the Isles at all.

How much does Huselius make???
