Anyone know his play style?

If Anders Lee can make the NHL with his skating, basically anyone can if they bring enough intangibles.

See if our new 'Bruise Brothers' can skate . . .

Seems like quite the improvement over 5 years ago

Interested to see what eventually gives. Seems like a bit of a logjam on the defensive end. Would really like to sign Sevigny to an NHL deal, and I wonder about Bolduc. Maybe Bolduc gets the full time call up?

The D corps is once again the strength of this roster.

I would add Seth Helgeson as a returnee. He's the team captain and an organization guy that Brent Thompson leans on.

Can Ishakov challenge for an NHL roster spot with a very strong camp? I feel like his game adds some dimensions that we can really use. Hopefully he looks good enough to be the first injury replacement call-up.

Of course, but the player needs to earn the spot on the team. I don’t see Ish good enough to earn a spot.

Watching him all year he has NHL skills and NHL offensive instincts. He competes well, isn’t afraid of traffic or board play for a player his size. The downside is for his size he isn’t a good skater, hes not slow persay but not explosive. Id compare him a bit to PA Parenteau, skilled guy who just isn’t a good skater to match his puck skills. All that said I do think he can be NHLer and perhaps be a guy who can get 40-50 points especially since he is very good on the PP.

There's surely an AHL-deal on the table and he's busy seeing if he can't get something better elsewhere in the meantime.

Not a guy worthy of one of the 50 contracts at this point, IMHO.

With Krygier signing, you probably don't need both of them, since they seem to be a similar player

For clarity, Krygier isn't signed to an ELC. Nor is Pivonka , for that matter.

Both are with the baby Islanders on purely AHL contracts.

Which is what I'd expect for Sevigny as well, if anything.

With Worherspoon out of the picture there’s still room for Sevigny. He had a good year. I’d like to see if he can keep developing.

Wotherspoon is out, but we signed two collegiate undrafteds. There might have been something in Sevigny that turned the organization off about him. Or maybe he didn't want to sign here, or even decided to play hockey in Europe?
 
Andreoff just led the league in scoring and is 32.

Me thinks he wants a raise on that instead of the 300k he was about to get. Cash in while you can.

Goalscoring, right?

Interesting. I had to check at Eliteprospects to figure out he's been released.

Thought he was already under contract.

I'd have to think he's off to Europe now.

Seems logical they'd retain both Kubiak and Bardreau, guys they love having around and in the locker room.

Cipollone is an ECHLer. Always thought he'd go the Europe route right away because his game is one that'll translate real well here. But there's time for that later perhaps.
