    Default Alexei Yashin comeback?

    You've got to be ****ing kidding me.

    Reports: Yashin talking to Islanders about NHL return

    "I've had discussions with both Mark and Alexei," Snow told Newsday on Friday. "I'd rather keep those conversations private, but Alexei has been skating at our practice rink in Syosset and he looks great. I've been on record saying I'd explore all options and any player that would improve our team and help us make that step."

    Gandler also confirmed to Sovietsky Sport on Friday that the Islanders were the lone NHL team interested in bringing him back.

    "At this time we are negotiating with the Islanders and are seriously considering their offer," he told the Russian news site.

    Yashin has spent the past four seasons playing in the Kontinental Hockey League with Yaroslavl Lokomotiv and St. Petersburg SKA. SKA general manager Alexei Kasatonov said earlier this month that Yashin's contract would not be renewed. The 37-year-old scored 15 goals in 52 games with SKA this past season and added another goal and four assists in four postseason games.
    Improve the Islanders how?!?!

    That would be so fantastically comical....it would be like the Kings bringing Alyn McCauley and Valeri Bure out of retirement.

    So, let me see if I understand this....

    The Islanders are looking at their second KHL washout to improve their team? They really have turned a corner. It Voynov decides to bolt there, maybe they'll trade Okposo for his rights.

    Yas**t has been and always will be a LOSER.

    I'm just astonished that a great franchise like the Isles has turned into THIS. Can you imagine the Bossy/Trottier/Gillies/Goring/Potvin Islanders even remotely considering this turd?

    All I can say is: WANG!

    I guess the Islanders are thinking that signing any player who's above 4th line in ability should improve the team regardless of the fit or absurdity of possibly paying him twice. It reeks of desperation, the kind that's plagued thay franchise for decades with short-sightedness.
