Martin Biron: “Yes, it has definitely been a pillar since everywhere, and especially in New York or Icelanders. But does that mean that this is the start of something new for New York Islanders? Kyle Palmeri is a UFA. Obviously, Matt Martin is a UFA. You look at their back-end, they have a lot of decisions to make with regard to the list next year. So, is Lou Lamoriello is this a change of guard, a new direction? What will happen on the island?
Dave Pagnotta: “Yeah, well, Marty Lou said after the deadline for trade that they were going to bring more changes this offseason. The plan is to become younger, and that is certainly aligned with some of their decisions. Now they have exchanged BROCK Nelson. They obtained a hell of a return from Colorado. Certainly applaud them for this movement, but they chose to keep Palmieri, and my understanding at the time was that there was, I believe that there is at least a verbal agreement to keep it on the island, that there is a type of extension.
I think they were discussing an extension of two years, we will see each time they decide to make it official. Might not be September.
McCarthy: “Could the bottom of the office drawer are huh?”
Pagnotta: “Okay. Yeah, he's like, I'm going to drop this when I am good and ready, but it seems to be safe. But I believe, and I believe that there is also another extension with another player who is a limited free agent pending, that there is an extension in place also a little younger.

So, whatever the changes they bring, and I believe that there will be a meeting of minds once their season will officially end. It may not be the next day. It could take approximately a week, but I think they will have a meeting of the spirits and discuss the management of the team and what it goes in the offseason. I think the islanders will be aggressive. »»
