<i> Staff and wire reports</i>

Mike Milbury, general manager and coach of the New York Islanders, recently went to Vienna to try and lure restricted free agent winger Ziggy Palffy back to New York.

Much to Milbury’s disgust, Palffy rejected an offer reportedly worth $7.75 million over two years, and Milbury came back without Palffy’s signature.

“It’s too bad he lives in the city,” Milbury said. “He’s depriving some small villages of a pretty good idiot.”
