Tavares should at least wait until the courting period shouldn't he? He has absolutely nothing to lose now listening to other teams, unless he's worried about stepping off the curb and getting hit by a bus in the next 2 weeks.
Islanders have the extra year in their pocket, which is a huge advantage, but if he re-signs there I will still be amazed. That gong show has pissed away the first 10 years of his career, and it's not like they are a legit contender the way Tampa was last off season with Stamkos. Plus Tampa had tax advantages in their back pocket too.
