Isles no longer have picks in the 2nd or 3rd round of the 2026 draft after this trade.
It certainly is a trade
Too much for a bottom D pair rental
It’s fine. Isles need the depth
Depth defenseman that can give us left side support so we don’t have to see a Mayfield-Boqvist combo. Im fine with it.
Ok
He’s got similar numbers to pelech so hopefully he’ll be a solid stay out home defenseman for us and cut down our GA
Don’t care. Let’s make a real move and take a run at the cup.
Realistically this is a wash but that makes it a stupid ass trade to me. What do we actually stand to gain from this? Why are we handing the Rangers assets, even if they’re shit 99% of the time, for somebody who’s shit 100% of the time?
Minus the rags being the trade partner, this is what good teams do. They arent afraid to add a piece and see how it blends. We need NHL caliber dmen. Cool with me for a 3rd
I found out he’s from Viking, Alberta so I’m in favor of
Of all the trades the islanders have made, this is one of them.
Not a bad trade this time of year. Can A/B test him against other similar players in the lineup to see if he becomes a slight upgrade on someone else with a change of scenery. If not, could always still try to ship him at the deadline.
Solid, great defensive piece
Its one of the trades of all time thats for sure
We never replaced Romanov and he’s not coming back. Cheap replacement.
We need a guy like him, if not him
According to Wikipedia, “His father Mike Soucy has played softball.” So there you go.
No excitement, but we won the trade
Drury is a GOD AWFUL GM
This will make a great trivia question in about 10 years
We had Soucy in Vancouver. He plays a solid and reliable game and I believe he will slot in nicely on the third pairing on your team. He’s also a good leader with a calm mentoring tone to his voice. I think he’s a good pick up for you guys.
Big fan. We desperately need defensive depth. I don’t really care who the trading partner is. If anything, I love Darche is willing to do unusual things to try and improve this team
Needed depth and gave up basically nothing. I’m good with it
Are we going for the cup this year or not? I personally don’t think we were a Soucy away from the cup. So why trade any draft capital? I do not think buying is the right move for this franchise, but if we’re going to buy… we should buy to become contenders.
Our window opens in 2-3 years. Soucy will not be here.

I wouldn’t do it but I won’t question Darche.
