TSN: Lamoriello on UFAs Martin, Clutterbuck: ‘The door never closes’

Lou Lamoriello on UFAs Matt Martin, Cal Clutterbuck: ‘The door never closes’ | TSN

The New York Islanders haven’t made a lot of changes to their roster this off-season but the two longest-tenured Islanders from last season aren’t under contract to the team.

www.tsn.ca

There was an interview by Staple at the Athletic that connected with this.

My take is either one or both of them are either back in a managerial/coaching/developmental capacity.
OR
Lou makes a trade to free up cap space and has deals for league minimum in the drawer for depth roles.

[Mr Misunderstood]

I'm sorry but the bench door should be closed to Matty Marts, even at league minimum...

 

[IslesNorway]

The older and slower the better - it's the Lou way!

 

[MJF]

One of them is getting a PTO, the other gets on the staff and works with Boychuk and Seidenberg during practice.

Nothing wrong with keeping things open.

What did he say about Bailey?

We'll see what happens this year, but my guess is that eventually Martin replaces Butch (or Hickey replaces Butch, and Martin replaces Hickey).

 

[Glory Days]

I think more likely Martin works in community relations like Nystrom did.

Brendan and hickey is the dream team

 

[BelovedIsles]

Did he mention anything else besides 5th liners.

 

[NYI365]

Is the door closed on Radek Martinek?

 

[IslesNorway]

Is the door closed on Radek Martinek?

He and Miro Satan are on LI waiting to go through said door.....

 

[leeroggy]

What did he say about Bailey?

Bailey Pruitt and Generalissimo Francisco Franco are STILL DEAD . . .

 

[Throttle]

Injury insurance if a forward goes down in the first 60 days.

 

[steveat]

Matty Marts is usually never the problem with the team. We just don't like him because he's not skilled enough and that he's old.

Clutter is old too, but he can still play.

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Did he mention anything else besides 5th liners.

He didn't mention anything at all. It's deliberately ambiguous.

 

[Symon Asher]

This team will get the shit kicked out of them this year
Remoe will have field day

 

[Osakahaus]

They wont be playing and I think its clear both wont be signed.

Enough

[The Real JT]

Bailey Pruitt and Generalissimo Francisco Franco are STILL DEAD . . .

I have it on good authority from a Mr. Richard Feder of Fort Lee, New Jersey that your information is accurate.

There's Lou, blabbing away again.

Seriously, if he spills in an interview that they're "probably moving on", I'd say that's a very strong "probably".
