This week on the Eyes on Isles Patreon account we had a ton more New York Islanders podcasts for you to consume. From an Anthony Beauvillier deal to what in the world is eating Nick Leddy. We’ve got more Isles podcasts for you.

Over on our Eyes on Isles Patreon account, Matt and I recorded another four New York Islanders podcasts this week. Even though the summer is basically here and the NHL season is essentially over, that doesn’t mean there isn’t anything to talk about.

Figuring Out Anthony Beauvillier’s Contract
What is restricted free agent Anthony Beauvillier worth exactly? After a poor 2018-19 season, Beau clearly isn’t going to get a great payout. With fellow RFA Anthony Duclair signing a new single year $1.65 million deal, could that be what Beau might get from the New York Islanders? We look back at Beau’s season, any internal and external comparable and come up with a contract for the former first-round pick.

Jordan Eberle Contract Extension Discussion

The Islanders surprised everyone this week and signed Jordan Eberle to a five-year $27.5 million deal ($5.5 million AAV). Matt and I look over the deal (term, AAV, trade protection, buyout options, etc…) and figure out if the New York Islanders gave Eberle a good or bad deal.

What’s Eating Nick Leddy?
Nick Leddy just hasn’t been the same player for about a season and a half, and because of that, he’s now on the Islanders trade block. What happened exactly? When did the decline happen? And what do the New York Islanders and their former number one defenseman do now?

Mailbag
We asked our Patron’s what they wanted to talk about this week. Here are just a few topics they came up with:

  • What’s the hold up with Anders Lee and Robin Lehner?
  • How will officiating change in the NHL now?
  • What are the rules in CBA that talk about buyouts and are there any limits?
