It won't make up for losing John Tavares to the Toronto Maple Leafs, but the New York Islanders have signed Leo Komarov to a four-year deal, the team announced Sunday.
TSN's Bob McKenzie has a breakdown of the deal:
Leo Komarov to the NYI, four years, AAV of $3M. Yearly breakdown is $4M, $3.5M, $2.5M and $2M.

Islanders general manager Lou Lamoriello knows Komarov well, as both were with the Leafs this past season.
The forward spent all five of his previous NHL seasons with Toronto after being drafted by the organization in the sixth round of the 2006 draft.
Komarov isn't known for his offensive production but rather for getting under the skin of opponents.
