The Islanders re-signed forward Chris Simon to a very cap friendly 1 year $475,000 deal. As we all remember, Simon tomahawked Rangers forward Ryan Hollweg during the Isles run to the playoffs and earned himself a hefty suspention. Simon will have to serve the remaining 4 games of that suspention at the beginning of this coming season.
In other news, reliable sources have assured me that the Islanders will in fact sign D-man Danny Markov in the coming days. This is big news as Markov is coming off an outstanding season with the Detroit Red Wings. His +25 would have led the Isles. He in all likelyhood would be our #1 defenseman.
Hopefully my source is right and I'll have more to write about him in the coming days...
Enjoy your Sunday....
