The New York Islanders currently have an opening on their defensive corps. They need to fill Nick Leddy’s Left Defense spot. Zdeno Chara could be a great fit.
The New York Islanders do not have a lot of good options to fill their open spot on the blue line via free agency. Also, the trade market is very limited and would be extremely expensive.
