Still numb from the news yesterday... Islanders captain John Tavares has signed with the Toronto Maple Leafs on a seven-year deal with an average annual value of $11 million. The Islanders had extended an eight-year offer to Tavares on Saturday afternoon, reports Arthur Staple of The Athletic. But on Sunday morning, he informed the team of his decision not to return. The Islanders were expected frontrunners to re-sign the veteran center.

I guess he isn't interested in hanging around for the rebuild. That's too bad, he's a great player.
I hope deGrom does the same when his opportunity comes.

I wish Tavares didn't tell everybody on Long Island that he never wanted to leave. If the Mets trade deGrom, at least you'll get a boat load for him. Unlike the Islanders who got squat for Tavares!!

The Mets are too incompetent to do that. It might be challenging but I'm confident they'll figure out to screw it up.
