The Islanders are in dire need of a puck moving, offensive, #1 defenseman. Hence the talk about Bryan McCabe. But I think the better option would be to sign John-Michael Liles once he hits UFA status on July 1st. He is young, and the perfect player to fit the Isles' needs. There have also been rumors floating around the internet that the Islanders would be involved with Liles, which I think is the absolute perfect move. Another good signing would be Radim Vrbata, a winger who is pretty young and scored 27 goals last season. He will not be too expensive, and seems like the perfect wish-for-a-prayer signing the Islanders like to make. I think adding Liles and Vrbata, with Bailey and other young players, to the team next year is the right direction for the Islanders.
