The Islanders traded away a defenseman, but it wasn't who most people expected. They sent Devon Toews to the Avs for a pair of 2nd round draft picks. We'll explain why Toews was traded and where the Isles go from here.

The Isles also signed a former star goalie to what is likely a minor league deal, we have more on that as well.

Plus our Isles birthday of the day and our review of Casey Cizikas' season and a look ahead to what he'll mean for the Isles next season.
