On the New York Islanders and John Tavares …

Maple Leafs Hot Stove: Darren Dreger was on TSN 1050 and was talking about the Islanders, John Tavares and contract talks.

” as far as trade. I actually connected with Pat Brisson, who represents John Tavares, in Pittsburgh in Game 2 during one of the intermissions. I reported probably a month or so ago that Tavares wanted a pretty clear idea of the direction of the organization from their new home to what their plans are to building the team into a contending team. He wanted all of that by now, in the month of June, so that he could make a decision. He didn’t want to enter the final year of his contract with all the uncertainty.

I think that’s shifted a little bit. They now — they being Tavares and Brisson — are comfortable with what’s going on with the New York Islanders and they’re willing to wait. I suspect that that is good news for the Islanders. it doesn’t mean that a contract extension is imminent, but it also doesn’t mean that the New York Islanders should be looking at their trade options because they don’t think he’s going to sign long term.”

Dreger adds that Jordan Eberle or Matt Duchene to the Islanders makes some sense.
