League moves and rumors continued throughout the first day of the NHL Draft, with at least one Islanders update and one “can confirm” thing that got people up in arms but is likely nothing. First, the Islanders announced the re-signing of defenseman Tony DeAngelo to a two-year contract at $4.5 million per year. Damn, nice […]
The New York Islanders made their first significant move of the offseason on Friday, re-signing defenseman Tony DeAngelo to a two-year contract extension. With the NHL Draft now mere hours away, general manager Mathieu Darche is staying busy, and he continues to listen on star forward Mathew Barzal.

Along with our friend Lisa, aka IslesChick, we reveal the 2026 winner of the Don Cutts Trophy as the Weirdest Islander of the Year for 2026. It was a weird season for the Islanders, who had good streaks and bad and historic performances and horrible ones on the way to a disappointing finish. Within that […]
DeAngelo posted 35 points in 76 games in his second season with the Islanders.
Tonight’s the night…the first round of the NHL Draft takes place via conference calls and hopefully through less-awkward TV means than last year (though we’ll never forget that Matthew Schaefer moment). Islanders News Elsewhere Not the Draft
Earlier today, the New Jersey Devils announced their schedule for the 2026 NHL preseason. The Devils will have four matchups, all against two Metropolitan Division rivals: the New York Islanders…
What was supposed to be an easy episode about the draft turned into a look at a wild few days in the NHL and where the Islanders sit among the craziness. We don’t know anything about prospects. So we reached out to our Patrons and asked them who they’d like to see the Islanders draft […]
Earlier on Wednesday, the New Jersey Devils announced their 2026-27 preseason schedule, along with a few key dates pertaining to when both rookies and veterans will report to training camp.

The Brady Tkachuk trade was only the beginning; lots of trades of name players continue to roll around the league in the lead-up to the draft. Meanwhile, the Islanders made a front-office move that I will take some getting used to, because I’m petty like that. Islanders News Elsewhere
Eric Cairns, who previously held the position for the Islanders, is no longer involved in hockey operations.
The Islanders are just days away from adding another top prospect to their system, unless they trade their pick for a 30-year-old. The mock drafts overfloweth; someone rated between 10th and 18th will probably be theirs. It will be both brilliant and inexcusable, a steal and a reach. Islanders News Elsewhere
Danhausen continues to put his powers to use. After leading the New York Knicks to an NBA Championship in one of the most improbable playoff runs ever, and dragging the Carolina Hurricanes across the finish line for a Stanley Cup victory, Danhausen is back at it again.

The offseason got a jolt, though at the expense of an already uninspiring July 1, when the top blueline UFA was taken off the market via a sign-and-trade. It’s not a riveting post-Cup June just yet, but a trade every other day isn’t a bad clip as we march steadily toward the draft. Islanders News […]
Mike and Dan chat with Islanders first round pick and true renaissance man Josh Ho-Sang about hockey, his music, spreading positivity and a variety of other topics.

The New York Islanders could have a pair of difficult decisions to make this offseason as general manager Mathieu Darche continues evaluating the roster ahead of the 2026-27 campaign. The NHL’s buyout window is now officially open, and veteran forwards Ondrej Palat and Pierre Engvall are two players who could suffer that fate this summer, […] The post NHL rumors: 2 Islanders forwards named as buyout candidates appeared first on ClutchPoints .
I have a Bernese Mountain Dog named Bear. He’s an absolute doofus, a rescue that we foolishly adopted after he’d basically run the streets of a rural area for the first two years of his life. So he knows not personal space nor manners. He drools — and flings his drool — more than any […]
The future of Jordan Kyrou in St. Louis continues to generate speculation, and the New York Islanders are emerging as a team to watch for the star forward. The 27-year-old has been one of the St. Louis Blues’ most productive offensive players over the last several seasons, but multiple reports suggest trade discussions involving Kyrou […] The post NHL rumors: Blues’ Jordan Kyrou could waive no-trade clause to join Islanders appeared first on ClutchPoints .

Mike and Dan recap singings and rumors, and reflect on how the Knicks’ championship makes them think about the Islanders’ chances of reaching the same pinnacle. Bringing back Long Island product Marshall Warren is a nice move, especially since the defenseman showed some promise in just a few NHL games this season. But beyond him […]
It wasn’t a good campaign for the St. Louis Blues, who finished on the outside looking in at the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the second time in three seasons.

The New York Islanders spent the weeks leading up to the March 6 trade deadline pursuing Jordan Kyrou, and the talks collapsed at the exact moment they got serious. Per Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News , St. Louis insisted on defensive prospect Kashawn Aitcheson, the 17th overall pick from the 2025 draft, as the centerpiece of any deal. The Islanders backed out immediately. Now, the conversation is widely expected to resume this summer with New York and the Blues both in different positi...
The Minnesota Wild’s need for a legitimate top-six center has been one of the organization’s most persistent issues. If the trade market fails to produce a solution, the team should strongly consider pivoting in free agency, specifically toward New York Islanders captain Anders Lee. While Lee...
