“Sources say the Islanders and centre Mike Comrie have agreed to a one-year, $4 million deal to keep the Edmonton, Alberta 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.”

Was told today that if McCabe is traded to the Island he’d be traded for Hunter, Bergeron and a 2nd…

Though its possible the trade fell out theres a good chance this is a sign and trade…

Now, you may be questioning why the isles would announce the signing. Its simple. Snow wanted to make this signing regardless of whether the trade happened…if the trade doesn’t happen or Hunter isn’t involved people will ask “why the delay in reporting it?”. If its good either way you might as well say it.

Its no coincidence that McCabe told Fletcher he’s consider waiving his NMC…something he’s never done.

I’ll update you guys as I learn more.

I refer to him as “Dirtbag” Chris Simon, the other one worthy of holding this title is “Dirtbag” Ray Emery. (more…)
