New York Islanders Bringing Derick Brassard (Rumor)
It seems that the New York Islanders aren’t done dipping their toes in the free agent market. Rumors has it that they’ll be bringing in center Derick Brassard.
It sounds like the New York Islanders are going to be bringing in free agent center Derick Brassard. It’s not the free agent signing we hoped the Islanders would make, but it’s very much on brand for GM Lou Lamoriello.
Brassard, 31-years-old, spent the 2018-19 season playing for the Pittsburgh Penguins, then he was traded the Florida Panthers, before being dealt again to the Colorado Avalanche. In 70 games played across all three teams, he scored 14 goals and 23 points.
