Who Plays and Who Sits When the New York Islanders Defense Corps Gets Healthy?

The New York Islanders have been finding ways to win without Adam Pelech, Ryan Pulock and Scott Mayfield in the lineup. The additions of Mike Reilly and Robert Bortuzzo have helped this team. But what happens when all three injured defensemen get healthy? Lane Lambert will have nine players for six spots in the lineup.

So, who sits and who plays? What happens to Samuel Bolduc? Sebastian Aho? Reilly? Bortuzzo? Alexander Romanov?

We discuss the lineup decisions and how the depth on the blue line could help GM Lou Lamoriello make a trade to help the team in other areas.

Plus we size up the Metropolitan Division at the holiday break and it may just be the deepest division in the NHL.

All this and more on today’s Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
