Should Ottawa be concerned that the Islanders may sign Barry Brust to an NHL contract?

No. Get him out of here. He's messing with Lehner's development.

Would leave Ottawa with some voids to fill though. Leclaire is injured, Elliott would be the only goalie in the NHL, Lehner would have to go to the AHL, and Brodeur would either have to play in the N or the A. Sens would have to sign or call up a goalie from a lower league.

Why not sign him for the rest of the year then, just to protect your property?

Don't we still have Chiodo and what's his face? Either way you call up a guy from the ECHL and you have Mike Brodeur and ?? play in Bingo for the balance of the season. What ever guarantees Brust is not back next season is best.

I think Chiodo was not re-signed and he went somewhere in Europe. His hockeydb entry shows KHL for 08/09 and then nothing.

Yeah, I think that makes sense... insurance would cover it, cap would come off the books as it's not a 35+ contract.
I can't see how the 35 year rule would come into play if the guy lost an eye. There's got to be some medical exemptions.
Yeah, not sure of the details around a career-ending injury... care to wade through the CBA? I'm sure Roche can provide some insight.

If I am following the conversation correctly, we have switched from talking about Savard to a player with an 35+ contract that suffers a career ending injury?

Any player who signs a contract when they are 35 or over will always be on the Clubs cap whether he is healthy, injured or retired; there is no way around it. But if the player doesn't file his papers and retire, as long as he continues to rehab and work toward a return, LTIR can provide relief.

A perfect current example is Ian Laperriere and the Flyers.

Shabbs, let me know if that is the question you wanted my opinion on.
Thanks for that... I was more curious on the player and their salary, whether it be 35+ or not... normally retirement means the player leaving money on the table for what's remaining in the contract right? But if you're forced to retire due to an injury, yet don't file papers etc... I assume the player will still get paid? Or does contract insurance kick-in and pay the player no matter what?

Should be a zero after that four if there was any justice in the NHL.

How many careers does this guy have to endanger ?

Reminds me of Bryan Marchment.

Not necessarily. What the Isles end up getting on the market will likely be an upgrade on Poulin.

Volchenkov suspended.

NEW YORK - New Jersey's Anton Volchenkov has been suspended three games for his elbow to the head of Carolina forward Zach Boychuk, according to the defenseman's agent.
Jay Grossman posted news of his client's suspension on his Twitter account Wednesday.
The incident occurred in the second period of Tuesday's game in New Jersey and Volchenkov was assessed a minor penalty for elbowing.
The 28-year-old Moscow native has four assists in 39 games this season, his first after seven with Ottawa.

Unbelievable how relaxed the league is with this idiot. Two violent plays in a few days, combined with a scattered history of filthy plays (including arguably ending Savard's career), and this only gets 4 games???

Can't understand this. Numbers the entire way, charging from blue line... It won't be long until Cooke actually kills someone on the ice. Maybe THEN they'll finally come to their senses and boot this guy from the game altogether.

From my recollection, Marchment wasn't nearly as predatory as Cocke (intentional typo). He was a big hitter and had a few incidents, but he isn't looking to maim people like that little bastard Cooke.
