The NHL Free Agency window opened up last Wednesday and yet the New York Islanders have remained quiet through the weekend. Deals are done but why have the Isles not announced anything? Lou Lamoriello has his reasons.
The New York Islanders lost Nick Leddy and Jordan Eberle due to the team’s cap crunch and the Seattle Kraken Expansion Draft. The blue and orange faithful entered Day 1 of NHL Free Agency anxious for good news.
While the official announcements has yet to come per numerous NHL Insiders (Elliotte Friedman & Bob Mackenzie on Day 1 of NHL Free Agency) word has leaked the Isles have completed a number of moves.
