The New York Islanders allowed three goals in the first 3:15 and fell to the Rangers 4-2 in their first game of the preseason. We have our key takeaways. While there were some familiar frustrations, there were also reasons for optimism including the goals scored by William Dufour and Arnaud Durandeau. Plus the power play looked different and did manage to score a goal.
Plus we look at Alexander Romanov and what his role on the team should be this season and what he needs to do to help this team be successful.
All this and more on today’s Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.

First!
It looks like about 10 Islander regulars were out. I saw about 4 or 5 Ranger regulars were scratched. Was that how many Ranger regulars were missing? Also Palmieri gets on my nerves. He seems to get hurt a lot or he is upset about his wife's pregnancy. He should have been benched more in the 21-22 season. The point is that he has really been disappointing since he came here. The only exception was the 21 playoffs. Hopefully he heals his body and gets 20 goals which is what his salary requires.
Nice to see dufour score. I hear maggio didn't look out of place out there. Maggio a player. I've been telling y'all that since last season. Unfortunately dufour and maggio could light it up all pre-season and still get the ticket to ahl. Too bad they'll have to wait it out until some of you know who's bad deals to his old slugs can be bought out. Could buy out palmeiri after this season. Lee, jpg-two more seasons before buy outs can occur.
Worrying start of first period but otherwise decent start considering the context and premise.
