What is Nabokov doing in NY

Ok sowe all know the story. Nabokov leaves the KHL to try to get on the Redwings. The Islanders put in a claim for god knows why. Nabby choses to sit out the season and the Lsle get knothing.
 So whats next? The Isles still have the rights to Nabby for 1 more season.He does not want to be there but has no choice. The Isles will still go no where this season so why toil with the crafty netminder?
here is my take on what will transpire this season.
Nabby will go to camp and be a good soldier and make the team
Snow will deal him to Detroit (or at least he should or he's a fool) for a decent young talent. like Abdelkader, Justin, Helm, Darren , Kindl, Jakub  or Gustav Nyquist.
I do not see a reason for the Islanders to keep him and all the right reasons to trade him to Detroit where he wants to be anyway.
Howard is a good young goalie but very inconsistant. this was the reason they were looking for Nabby in the first place to backup Howard and give them a push in the playoffs.
I will be watching this one unfold
