TSN Insider Trading: Pierre LeBrun: Asked New York Islanders GM Garth Snow Thursday if he’d consider trading John Tavares before the trade deadline if they fall out of the playoff race and he said: “I am not trading John Tavares.”
Darren Dreger: Some think that Tavares has decided to at least see what the free agent market look like. Some also think that Tavares will use this time to see how GM Snow deals with their other free agents like Josh Bailey.
