WingZNut13 99 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 Wouldn't it be logical for the other NHL teams to look at this and realize that he doesn't want to play anywhere else but Hockeytown and realize that he won't play there and just let him come to Detroit! What a mess! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CenterIce 83 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 According to Garth Snow, it sounds like the Islanders will be keeping him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zetterthancrosby 11 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 so Ken Daniels also just said Nabby won't report to the Isles... I think even the Isles don't want to report to the Isles. 2 Byorski and Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I Red Wings I 40 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 Wouldn't it be logical for Snow to contact him or his agent before they claim him? It just seems that this situation was avoidable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Konnan511 1,736 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 And if he doesn't report, then what? The Islanders have a guy taking up a roster spot that isn't playing for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheDetroitRedWings 286 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 And if he doesn't report, then what? Now he sits with no team for the rest of the season. Then in the offseason he will be a free agent again. And thinking logically, he'll most likely sign with the Wings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Finnish Wing 110 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) And if he doesn't report, then what? Either Isles waive him which probably eventually leads to Wings getting him. Or they keep his 570k salary and get nothing but bad reputation among Meehan's other clients.I mean if it were the Sharks or Blackhawks - just to prevent Detroit from getting him - it wouldn't been such a big deal. But cmon the ISLANDERS? : DDD Garth Snow is a real player, I gotta tell ya. Edited January 22, 2011 by Finnish Wing 1 Vladifan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a mess! lmao, you would think that - right?But it's always more than that. Watch another team snag him and then says he doesn't report. Then mean that he now he can't play in the NHL 'till next year to spite us. -__- Edited January 22, 2011 by Christ0pherXx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ozzie30 170 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 If he doesn't report there's only 2 options: 1. Suspend him for the remainder of the season. 2. Put him back on waivers, with his permission of course. If I was Snow, I'd just let him move on - no sense in playing hardball and scaring future FA's away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheOwl 77 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) Can't Nabokov just declare he won't report to any team but the Wings? Is that against the rules? At least he would clear waivers. The Islanders look like a joke here. Edited January 22, 2011 by TheOwl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hey man nice shot! 144 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 And if he doesn't report, then what? the isle has shown there low class act, whats not to say there doing san jose a favor and locking him up so the wings don't get him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 I wonder why my post was deleted along with some others. My bad: Some were deleted by accident (I thought I was in the GDT - don't ask!) and the forums won't let me restore them for some reason. Mod functions are acting up very badly today and I'm the only one online. Please bear with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
