Here is your latest Islanders news!
According to Darren Dreger on TSN, the Islanders and forward Mike Comrie are close to signing a one year contract extension.
As the NHL trade deadline rapidly approaches the New York Islanders may have potentially removed one of their trade targets from the market.
Sources say the Islanders and centre Mike Comrie are close to a one-year deal to keep the Edmonton native in Long Island.
In 63 games this season, Comrie leads the Islanders with 27 assists and 45 points. In 449 career games, the 27-year old has 141 goals and 166 assists for 307 points.
This past off-season he signed a one-year contract with the Isles after helping the Ottawa Senators reach the Stanley Cup finals
So between Newsday’s Greg Logan and now Darren Dreger (Who has more connections than Penn Station) this is two sources that have claimed Comrie is close to resigning. Should Comrie sign I expect a slight raise over this years contract as it’s only one year. That would tell me the team is satisfied with his play, but they feel he could be doing better – (read; not first line play).
