“Islanders’ Next Season Strategy: A Roster Revolution or Tactical Tweaks?”
NHLRumors.com Note: The New York Islanders have to get younger this season. There is no question about it. Not to mention, they must add a goal scorer as well. That is a must. There is only so much Mathew Barzal and Bo Horvat can do on their own. Anthony Duclair just wasn’t the right add for this team.
The Islanders are moving on from the Hall of Fame GM Lou Lamirello as he has been fired as Team President and General Manager. So, there will be a new GM in charge.
That pending RFA that is getting a new contract extension, according to Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News, is Adam Boqvist. Again, nothing official until official. That is a good keep for the Islanders, but they need to do more. Maybe this means Palmieri does not come back, and they move out Jean-Gabriel Pageau. One thing is for sure: the roster will look a lot different.
