New York Islanders Podcast: How to Deal With Large Contracts

There are three large contracts on the New York Islanders cap that they might need to move at some point. Andrew Ladd carries a $5.5 million cap hit for the next four years. Johnny Boychuk has a $6 million cap hit and Nick Leddy carries a $5.5 million cap hit over the next three years.
