Offseason Post 2. Miro and Yashin

Well it has been a week since the Islanders were eliminated. Alexei Yashin has stated he would give up the "C" if asked. This seems to me like Yashin knows he is on thin ice. He knows that the Islanders need his money to lock up Smyth, Blake, and maybe another big timer like Drury, Kariya, or Briere. Yashin NNEEEDDDSSS to be bought out ASAP. Ryan Smyth wants to win a cup, and he knows that if they buy out Yashin they are making a bid for the cup. A rumor has sprouted that the Islanders and Leafs could swing a Yashin for McCabe deal. McCabe owns a house here and his wife also lives here. The contracts are similar with 4 years and tons of money left on each. The deal would favor the Islanders but Leafs Nation turned on McCabe this year. How awesome would that PP be with McCabe and MAB.

Satan, is a bit complicated. He had an off year but I think we should hold onto him until the deadline. It is his contract year so he will be playing hard. The Stars were interested in him before they got Nagy this year and he could fit in there. I think he will be on board for the beginning of the year.

Thanks for Stopping By.
