Andrew MacDonald is reportedly seeking over $5 million per year in his new contract, which could lead to him being traded prior to the March 5 deadline.
He admitted that the trade rumors aren't something he feels comfortable with. "It's not exactly what you want to be going through," said MacDonald, who rejected a four-year, $16 million offer earlier this season. "I'm sure it'll cross my mind during the break, but that's time to get away from it all and, when I'm back, it's back to business, no matter what happens. I'm an Islander and this is where I want to be. That's all you can think for now." If the Islanders don't want to meet his contract demands then it's much more likely that he'll be moved.
