On the New York Islanders and John Tavares …
Chris Nichols of FRS Hockey: Elliotte Friedman was on the NHL Network on Wednesday talking about the John Tavares – New York Islanders situation.
Friedman noted that after the trade deadline he went to do an interview with Mathew Barzal and watched the Islanders play the Canucks. You see how disappointed Tavares was that they didn’t make any moves at the deadline to improve. is sure Tavares didn’t want Doug Weight fired, but if they want to re-sign him, the Islanders need to show that remaining status quo isn’t going to work, and they need to propose some sort of change.
