Rumor mill starting to get busy

So - back to hockey talk…..

Latest rumor coming around the Eklunds Blogs….

Mike Komisarek to the Islanders.

A little homecoming, if you will. Mike is from the Islips, but grew up a Habs fan. How? Well - a lot of kids were not Islanders fans in the 90’s — for reasons we will not bring up here….

However, the U of Michigan player was a first round pick of Montreal in the 2001 draft. He is a big boy (6′ 4″ - approx 235 lbs). Likes to hit and create havoc in the defensive zone. A definite need that we could always take. Could this guy be wearing orange and blue soon???? Brendan Witt is also of that type, but the other two lines that we would have, would be short of the target for a physical presence.

I know that he lost his mom recently to cancer, I believe, and he has a very strong family bond. Maybe a change of scenery could be a good thing for him, especially when it would be a homecoming of sorts.

Tune into the blog for more info - as it comes…
