Islanders trade…

The Islanders just announced the acquisition of Rob Davison for a seventh-rounder. Depth defenseman, added toughness.

(Well, it was “just” when I wrote that. Couldn’t get on the server for about 10 minutes.)

Sounds like at least one of the UFAs will go. We’ll see.

The Caps are busy, picking up Sergei Fedorov. Wonder how things will shake out for them and for Hershey.

TSN’s just saying Phil Kessel is going to be eligible for Providence’s playoff roster. Good: Providence wasn’t any good.

Linkage: Kimber’s nice piece on Okposo. Coolest ECHL weekly release ever.
