The New York Islanders have been talked about since free agency began, but none of their rumored moves have been officially announced.
Sportsnet and NHL Network’s Elliotte Friedman discussed the situation on the most recent episode of his podcast, “31 Thoughts”.
We’re working on a coupled interview pods, but this is the final “news” podcast of the season. As always, thank you for listening. An end-of-year run throughout the NHL. All links here:https://t.co/ZevJYgwSMs

Friedman’s theory is that Islanders general manager Lou Lamoriello is trying to trade for someone, but doesn’t want anyone to know how much cap space he has.
