#Isles and Brock Nelson have agreed on a three-year, $7 million deal.

Good news for the Isle fans as the Islanders have a policy for players to sit out for the whole year if they are not signed by the start of main camp.

That sucks. It would have been nice to see him on the flames.

Looks like Nelson caved to me, I expected more $.

What? Seriously? That's one of the worst ideas I've heard today. Have they ever enforced this?

Wow great value for the Islanders.

Poo. Had some hope that the Flames could pull a trade off just under the training camp wire. Thats a solid contract for the Isles.

Nelson's deal with #Isles is actually 3 years, $7.5 million. My bad. Breaks down like this: 2015-16: $1.5m, 2016-17: $2.5m, 2017-18: $3.5m.

Pretty great contract for the Isles. Since the Vanek debacle it seems Snow can do no wrong.
