I think the NYI organization deserves half the blame for taking Tavares at his word however: you never let a guy with than kind of value get to UFA status without trading him... Similar to Stone this year. Ottawa negotiated with him, but once Stone said it wasn't going to happen, Ottawa put him on the trading block.

But that's exactly it... Stone stood up and said it wasn't going to happen. Tavares led the Islanders believe it would.
