Danis Heads To New Jersey

Yann Danis officially became an ex-Islander today, signing a contract with the New Jersey Devils. It was clear he wasn’t coming back, and if there was any chance of him re-signing, it went out the window when the Isles signed Dwayne Roloson. Danis now takes his trade to the Devils, where he’ll likely back up Martin Brodeur.

Danis didn’t have much help last season with the Islanders, but still put up fairly respectable numbers. Now, he heads to the Prudential Center, where he’ll make a handsome salary to operate the door of the bench. He actually might see more playing time than is customary for a Devils backup if their next coach wisely gives Brodeur a rest every now and again. And no team will make Danis look as good as the Devils will.

There’s one absolute certainty in all of this. The Devils will sit Brodeur for at least one Islanders-Devils game this year, and Danis will come in and absolutely stonewall his former team. How could Islanders fans expect anything else?
