Rangers Sideline Carson Soucy in Mysterious Move—What Are They Hiding?
If completed, the trade would be just the fourth between the teams and first since 2010.
The Islanders have been looking for a left-shooting defenseman since Alexander Romanov injured his right shoulder and had surgery in November, sidelining him for 5 to 6 months. That timeline means Romanov could return at some point after the playoffs begin in mid-April.
Soucy, 31, is a pending unrestricted free agent and would be a rental addition for the Islanders, who have shifted into contending mode in GM Mathieu Darche’s first season in charge. No. 1 pick Matthew Schaefer emerging as a young star and the rookie of the year front-runner raised the organization’s expectations, and making the playoffs in a wide-open Eastern Conference is now a realistic expectation.
