It didn't matter what the Islanders did, Tavares likely had his mind set years ago that he wanted to go to the Leafs and pretended like he hoped to stay in New York, all the way to the end. He should have allowed them to trade his right or state his intent. He chose not to.

He was selfish, and sure he has a right to, but he burned his bridges and danced on the other side while doing it.
And in doing so he did the Leafs and enormous 'Solid' by allowing them to acquire him for free.
