Last year was an extremely tough year for the New York Islanders veteran, Andrew Ladd. In 73 games Ladd put up just 29 points (12 goals, 17 assists) while raking in $6 million ($5.5 million against the cap).
Through his first two years, Ladd’s contract looks disastrous. Now, with Ladd banged up it’s starting to look even worse.
Ladd hasn’t practiced in 10 straight days and looks like a long shot to be ready for the season opener. Lou Lamoriello doesn’t have a timetable for his return nor would he disclose what the injury actually is.
