New York Islanders fans lived the extreme high of possibly landing Artemi Panarin to finding out the extreme low that he was signing with the Rangers, of all teams, for the first day of free agency. The Robin Lehner saga was an unfortunate plot, but ultimately the league was reshaped over the past day.
So what are the ten most pressing questions for the Isles after day one of free agency? Here’s my take.
1. Do we still trust in Lou?
Lou swung and missed. I give him credit for giving it a go and not worrying about ‘looking bad’ when the players didn’t choose the Isles, which is what happened with Panarin.
