^ Any signing the Devils make works out for them... They can sign a 53 year old beer league scrub and he would do great for them.

Islanders owner Charles Wang has been battling with local officials for several years in an attempt to build a new arena for his team.
As the New York Post reports, Wang has set an Oct. 3 deadline to get approval for his Lighthouse Project, commercial development that includes a new arena, or else he'll "explore all options," including the possibility of moving the team to another city.
At a zoning hearing held yesterday to discuss the new development, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman indicated that the Islanders most definitely need a new home.
"I think it is clear, and I say this perhaps as a matter of observation, and as a matter of fact: There is probably no worse major-league facility right now in North America than the Nassau Coliseum," Bettman said.
It has been widely speculated that Wang might consider a move to Kansas City, which already has an NHL-ready arena. The Islanders' lease with Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum runs through 2015.
The Lighthouse Project has plans to be built on the current 150-acre Coliseum site and will include a residential area, office buildings, a retail area, a concert hall, a sports complex, a minor league baseball stadium, a five-star hotel, and a renovated arena for the Islanders.
@ Bettman going in on Nassau like that..........this Lighthouse Projectsounds
(Newark, NJ) - Philadelphia Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren met with the media prior to Saturday night's game against the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center, to discuss the team's decision to place defenseman Randy Jones on waivers.
Holmgren: "It was a difficult decision, obviously. We will see what happens over the next couple of days whether he gets claimed off waivers or not. We need to have some flexibility with our roster and this potentially could give us more flexibility."
Q: You can add 4 players out of this move.
PH: "Other than to say it gives us flexibility...I wouldn't speculate on players. The picture will become more clear on Monday."
Q: Was it more of a financial decision move or rather the way he was playing?
PH: "Randy is a good, experienced player. Obviously, he missed a lot of time last year, but he played decent at the end. This year coming off surgery he's just kind of getting back into it. I'm not worried about his overall play."
