Eklund FWIW

Eklund wrote Saturday (before the game) that Marty Biron "might be the answer that Detroit is looking for".

Today he notes that there may be something brewing between the Islanders and Oilers (besides their game tomorrow, obviously).

Quoting his tweets:

"the (Islander) name I am hearing right now is definitely too shocking to go with until I get more confirmation. Not Tavares obviously.about 2 hours ago 
 Horcoff may be involved. Checking."

Horcoff is in the second year of a 6-year contract with the Oilers.
