#Isles HC Pete DeBoer says Ryan Pulock and Matias Maccelli have no restrictions tonight against LA.
DeBoer added that Maccelli may have to take on a bigger workload than initially planned given the injury situation up front.
(H/t @NYIslanders)
Alex Tuch (was a free UFA; allegedly too old) on pace for 58 goals this season
Jordan Kyrou on pace for 74 points
Max Shabanov on pace for 35 goals/57 points
Hoping Maccelli returns with a vengeance here... π±
Praying Duclair & Palmieri can get going π°
#Isles
No Formal Breakdown here - Just found it hilarious that Michkov went so far out of his way to give Seeler this pass that he went between the legs to attempt it. Also not the right play here as youβd rather drive the netβ¦. Iβm sure the angry mob will have fun with this though
@ChrisRM22 Org shouldβve reset after Roy, rebooted, & been patient to double-down
Canβt give anyone from KHL just 3 months of healthy hockey to be his best
They always take 2 years. We gave 1 because Darche missed playoffs. He burned his goodwill so he chose safe bet Maccelli & Duclair π
@islesr71 As a pair Pelech-DeAngelo is statistically elite. Separate them and Tony is just a regular 4/5 D-man
Play what works. 1+1 = 3 when they're together
To me, it's simple.
Stanley was a late add. Great the first 3 weeks. Terrible the last 2.
Schaefer-Pulock
Pelech-DeAngelo
^elite pairs. Use 'em.
Stanley-Kessel
Hutton-Mayfield
Bottom pairs = crapshoot. 4 misfit toys. No puckmover. Play 'em <15 min til #Isles/Darche upgrade 1
The #Isles continue adding defensemen to patch up a shaky blue line.
But Isaiah George, who failed to make the team out of training camp, believes he's indeed ready to be the guy.
George spoke exclusively to @TheElmonters + a defense deep dive ‡οΈ

#Isles fell off a cliff after the Pulock injury
Even without Maccelli/Ritchie, the group played well enough to tilt the ice
Since the D fell into a blender, 0-4 record
Make Pulock Healthy Again.
MaPHA!
