The NHL buyout period begins today so the question remains, will the New York Islanders buy out the final year of Josh Bailey's contract or will GM Lou Lamoriello find a trading partner to take some or all of Bailey's $5 million cap hit off the Isles hands. We look at the three options the team has and discuss which course would be the best.
Also, which potential RFAs will get qualifying offers from the Isles. Parker Wotherspoon, Bode Wilde and Oliver Wahlstrom are the potential RFAs. We also discuss a former Isles player who did not receiver a qualifying offer from his current team and will now be an unrestricted free agent.
And we continue our player by player look at the Isles roster with Andy Andreoff. What was his season like both in the NHL and at Bridgeport and what is his future role with the Islanders.
All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
