Now I ask you this question. If you were thinking of going to another city wouldn’t you want to go and see the facilities of the dressing room, what kind of a city it was, what kind of an organization it was? Therefore him not flying to other cities I think Tavares has already made up his mind where he is going and he and his agent just want to hear other clubs to see if they will give them stupid money which I’m sure Lou Lamoriello won’t. I will bet even money that he stays with the Islanders.

-Don Cherry on John Tavares. A bit more from Cherry.
