Dano is being ignored by a lot. I think he'll put up big numbers there.

If he and Risto take another big step next year I bet that's what Murray tries to do.

I'd do it now.

Offer them both and see if they bite.

They walk out of this at 30 and 29 and can still get another big contract.

Probably a little hesitant given who they just bought out and who they traded a few months ago were both given similar deals...

Then watch them get something great in return, probably enough to put them over the top.

That management team knows their poop.

I don't believe they'll move drouin but lets say they do move him for that kind of return.


We both just saw what picks and prospects can do for a team. No matter how you slice tampa's got a real shot at this, i don't care how bad the east is by comparison that team is built to win.

I think you're confusing them with the US


Silver is a good thing in the NHL.

Report: Islanders will let prospect Russo walk

2011 NHL Entry Draft

The New York Islanders won’t sign prospect Robbie Russo, instead allowing him to become a free agent, according to Newsday’s Arthur Staple.

Russo, 22, was a fourth-round pick (95th overall) in 2011. He just finished up his collegiate career at Notre Dame, where the team viewed the defenseman as a “key catalyst in the Irish attack.”

It seems like Russo is just getting lost in the shuffle, with what was not an especially impressive standing in the Islanders’ defensive prospect ratings at Hockey’s Future. Still, his numbers were solid at Notre Dame (41 points in 40 games last season), so perhaps he’ll draw some interest on the free agent market.

Same thought I had.....but What the hell, sign em' to league minimum and put in Roch, we need Defensmen in the Pipeline and this guy will fit nicely with the 4 we picked up on draft day.
