New York Islanders defenseman Zdeno Chara is a lock for the Hockey Hall of Fame but he's also 45 and he was expected to retire. Now his agent says Big Z will wait until September to decide whether to play another season or not. We discuss how this will affect Lou Lamoriello and the Islanders and why Chara should probably look elsewhere if he wants to play in 2022-23.

Plus the Isles preseason schedule has been released and we break it all down for you along with what the Islanders can learn from the Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche.

All that and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
