The troop of Patrick Roy is having a first third of the season like what they are used to offering us, that is to say, hockey that is a little flat, competitive, but rarely dominant. A team that relies on their playing system more than on the offensive skills of its players.
With a record of 12-12-7, the Islanders are not in a bad situation, but if they want to participate in the playoffs, they will have to find a way to win more regularly and in fact, they will have valuable help starting today .
Mathew Barzal et Adam Pelech will make their return to the game.
Barzal has not played since October 30 and Pelech since November 1. These are two major additions to a team that badly needs them.
The Islanders’ best forward will certainly bring a breath of fresh air to the Islanders’ lineup. The latter are 25th in the entire league in the column of goals scored per game with an average of 2.61.
For his part, the defender Adam Pelech has built a reputation as one of the best defensive defensemen in the league in recent years. He brings a lot of stability to the New Yorkers’ defense.
