Lighthouse Hockey, a New York Islanders community

Lubomir Visnovsky had a no-trade clause. But was it still in effect when he was with the Edmonton Oilers or the Anaheim Ducks, and it could it block his trade to the New York Islanders? An NHL arbitrator will decide.

Vincent Lecavalier's name keeps popping up, tied to the potential sale of the Lightning to Jeffrey Vinik. Trade speculation is healthy, but trade speculation that is tied to a team's sale to make the numbers work is a disaster in the making.
