mod edit 2:42pm -- RT @TSNBobMcKenzie: Sources tell TSN that Evgeni Nabokov has decided to NOT report to NYI after being claimed on waivers today.


NICK EDIT Hey Islanders

Yep, NYI

Disappointing to say the least

will he report?

yup claimed by the Isles, not a big surprise.

Not sure why the Isles would claim him. They should be going for the draft pick but as an Oilers fan I don't mind it. :)

Maybe he doesn't report?

Link?

Thats the worst team to claim for both the wings and for Nabby. The Islanders don't have an extra goalie that they can send away.

me either as a sen fan !

looks like Nabokov will be enjoying his time off :laugh:

I was hoping Avs will make claim to him. I guess he didn't go too far down.

Sens for a lottery pick! I love it!

I knew it and this just makes me dislike NYI and snow even more...

They need a new sitcom.

"Central Division: Waiving Good Bye"

I guess time will tell, but if he wants to start, it is only a matter of time before Rick D turns to dust...

DP's health is still questionable.
Lawson got hurt, last night.
Poulin is a SOLID prospect, but he could use some playing time in Bridgeport.

The Isles just like pissing everyone off don't they?

Wow. Maybe they hope to trade him?? :(

Terrible.

God ****ing damnit.

How do you know it's not more of the Sens scouts who are excellent? Because I look at Murray's signings and trades and it's clear he's a bad GM. If anything I'd say the scouting staff deserves the credit there.

Besides even if he is a great drafter, why would you sell yourself short on getting a complete GM? I mean if you needed a new transmission, but your mechanic could only change your oil, would you continue to use him?

I mean really...

He already said he will report to whoever team because he is looking for next year's contract.

They say the Isles can't turn around and trade him. How long does that provision last? A week, a month, the whole season...?

and the isles get better!!!!!

assuming he reports

WIN WIN situation
