Just read that Alexei Yashin is the Isles' highest paid forward. I doubt that Wang and Milbury are exchanging Xmas cards.

Yeah he counts 4.75 against the Cap this year. Yashin's deal ends in 2014 or 15 I think. His cap number for the rest of the deal starting next year is 2.2 million.

What's sad about the Islanders is they're using Yashin, Witt & Dipietro to reach the cap floor. Although Ricky played okay tonight.

They're actual roster only costs like 37 million bucks.

Byfuglien has been good for the Thrashers.

I never thought you could mathematically be eliminated from the playoffs before the regular season starts, but I didn't take the magnitude of the Islanders' capacity for failure into account, it would seem.

Usually when teams draft can't miss superstars, they get better each successive year afterward. The Islanders seem to be going backwards since they were presented Tavares.

Tavares isn't the problem. They don't have much around him. It doesn't help when 5 or your top 8 defensemen are out of the lineup as well. Travis Hamonic played well last night. So there's another prospect who could be bright spot.
