Souray, McCabe, and Peca.

Just some rumors to address quickly:

Sheldon Souray is a great point man on the PP. He can also lay the body on players in his own zone but he is going to get so MUCH more then what hes really worth this offseason. If we sign him for 5 Million dollars or under I'd do it, but nothing more.

Bryan McCabe would cost us 5.75 million dollars if he came here, he also has a great shot from the point and has improved in his own end but still needs to focus more. He also takes some bad penalties.

Mike Peca is coming off an injury riddled year. There is no way I'd pay him more then 1.5 Million dollars for one year. Although with him and Sillinger we would not lose a faceoff all year.

The Islanders have 28 + million dollars to spend if they want to this offseason. That is a lot of money and we should be looking to give it to the BEST UFA's not just the players that we all loved when they were here. Drury, Briere, Smyth, Kariya, Souray, Sarich, Sutton, Gomez, Comrie, Preissing, and Hartnell are all out there. So lets see if we can spend our money wisely.
