New York Islanders Zidlicky Still Out There

Marek Zidlicky is available and potentially still looking for work. He hasn’t officially retired or anything, but he finds himself without a contract after the New York Islanders chose not resign the aging veteran defenceman at the end of the season.

The 39-year-old Czech born player was signed to a one-year deal with the Islanders after finishing off the 2014-15 season with the Detroit Red Wings after being traded by the Devils for a third-round (and a conditional fifth round-pick).

Fun Fact: Zidlicky played 84 regular season games that year between Detroit and New Jersey.
