Islanders to acquire Nagy?

Rumours are rampant in New York that the Islanders are close to getting Ladislav Nagy. Nagy may be the offensive punch the Islanders need to make a playoff run. The Islanders may have to give up Jason Blake and another prospect (possibly Robert Nilsson) to get Nagy.

Toronto is looking to deal Pavel Kubina. Unfortunately, his contract is not appealing to many teams. Toronto is looking to shed some salary and try to rebuild for next year.

Sources from Buffalo indicate that the Sabres are willing to sign Daniel Briere at any price. Briere, who scored 5 points and was named the All Star MVP in the All Star game, could command a salary of more than 6 million a year. This would make Chris Drury available in the offseason.

I think thats a high price for Nagy, He's not much of a finisher. Blake has become that, we let him go who will benefit? Miro?? Satan/Nagy/Yashin is a pretty solid line... Nilsson is a guy im not to sure we should give up on so easily either. Look how many guess are stars in this league that where ex isles..
