Forwards still out there for the NY Islanders to consider before the trade deadline

The trade deadline frenzy began yesterday with some of the top names available coming off the board.

Things kicked off with potential NY Islanders target Vladamir Tarasenko being moved to the Florida Panthers, who are gearing up for another Stanley Cup run after losing in the finals last season.

Adam Henrique went to the Edmonton Oilers, Casey Mittlestadt and Sean Walker to the Colorado Avalanche, and Noah Hanifin to the Vegas Golden Knights were some of the big names with new homes.

With a little over 24 hours remaining before the deadline, we're sure to see more movement around the league, and the Islanders are expected to be one of the teams active.

The Detroit Red Wings were blown out by the Avalanche last night, which now leaves the Isles four points (with games in hand) behind the Wings, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Philadelphia Flyers for a playoff spot.

A depleted prospect pool and not having made a first-round pick since 2019, leaves Lou Lamoriello without many assets to move, but with Scott Mayfield on LTIR, the organization has a little under $2.5M in cap space.

Here are some forwards that the Islanders could still pursue.
