Islanders Resign Goalie

The New York Islanders resign Wade Dubielewicz to a one year $500,000 contract. Here's a guy who will backup Ricky D. It also will probally end the carrer of Islanders GM Garth Snow's best friend Mike Dunham, who backed up DiPetro last season before lossing his job to Dubielewicz. This is one less team and goalie off the free agent market.

The next goalie who could be off the market could be Minnesota Wild's all star goalie Nikals Backstorm. Reports are they will talk this coming week. Look for Backstrom to get about $3 million a year. If Backstorm does resign with Minnesota look for veteran goalie Manny Frendez to be dealt some possible teams are some of the warmer area's in the US; Phenoix, Tampa Bay, and Florida.
