when your 2 lotto tix (thanks CGY) come thru JT will stay. then Snow just needs to find a goalie. maybe move 1 of those pics as well for a Dman. You guys are so close.
I think he stays.

Sadly, I think you're right. However, Snow has had years to address the same problems and hasn't. I truly hope Snow gets shot into the sun, but have a bad feeling JT walks for nothing and Snowjob remains, somehow.

IF...JT leaves I wouldn't be surprised if it's a sign and trade ...for that eight year! ..plus giving the island something? ..snow franked up in not getting a goalie! and possibly help on the blue line? ..but if he can trade with Chia one more time ..maybe he redems himself? ..best of luck with the rest of the way

JT wants to be in the playoffs. The last thing he likely wants is to sign with the Islanders and handicap whatever team he's going to.... I mean sure the 8th year is a bonus but why would anyone want to inject Garth Snow into their plans to leave? Assuming he's leaving. Not saying he is.

This reminds me of the Zach Parise debacle several years back. Although it looked bleak at the time, and set us back a few years, it wound up best for the Devils. It'll be alright Isles fans, hang in there.

If he doesn't take the puck at the end of the game then we know he is staying

Personally, I think he's gone. Why would he want to stay with this sh!t show? Snow has done nothing to improve the roster in the last few years to make them a playoff threat.

Maybe the Flames will Push for JT to make up that lotto pick.
If it's sign and trade. Flames has the assets to still make it happen.

If I've done the math right (and that's a big "if"), JT would probably prefer a 7 year vs. an 8 year contract.

7 years takes him to 34 years old.

8 years takes him to 35.

From a financial standpoint, you'd much rather be signing your farewell contract at 34, not 35.

Semantics perhaps, but 1 thing is guaranteed. It won't be the Isles offering that big 7/8 year contract. Nor his farewell contract.

They need to trade for a Taylor Hall like player though.

Good thing they've got a track record of trading with the oilers.

They need to acquire half a blueline and a competent goaltender

hahaha this was the best one.

On a serious note though, If he does leave I will actually feel a bit bad for you guys. I honestly will. Its not right. I would understand him leaving on his side of things but the whole situation wouldn't be right.

Can't really blame Snow tough. He tried. Here he is hard at work.

A dream come true would be if Garth was frozen solid and jammed into some industrial farm equipment
