The radio silence continues with the New York Islanders and general manager, Lou Lamoriello. However, things are starting to become a little clearer the longer the silence rolls on. There's speculation that the Islanders are still in the trade market as Vladamir Tarasenko's name continues to pop up on the rumor mill. Casey Cizikas, Kyle Palmieri, Zach Parise, and Travis Zajac are all assumed to be under contract. James and Jon analyze the surprising long-term deal Cizikas is rumored to have signed, as well as dive into possible trade targets that can fill the Nick Leddy-sized hole left after his trade to the Detroit Red Wings, such as Hampus Lindholm, Cam Fowler, and Damon Severson. All this and more in episode 70 of NHP.
