Islanders' Matthew Schaefer: Plucks two apples Tuesday
Schaefer recorded two assists, compiled a plus-2 rating, placed three shots on net, had two blocked shots and dished out two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Vancouver.
Schaefer tallied his second multi-assist game of the new season Tuesday, where he picked up a helper on each of the Islanders' final two goals, including Kyle Palmieri's game-winning goal. With his pair of helpers on Frozen Frenzy, the 19-year-old Schaefer is up to six assists, 23 shots on net, four hits and five blocked shots across six appearances. While he's yet to find the back of the net in 2026-27, the rising superstar has done everything else at a high level, making him an elite fantasy option for the remainder of the season. As he's currently rolling on a four-game point streak, expect Schaefer to contend for a new career high in points in his sophomore season.

Islanders' Matias Maccelli: One of each in narrow win
Maccelli scored a goal, registered an assist, posted a plus-2 rating and launched six shots on net in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.
Maccelli played a large part in Tuesday's win, as he tallied the Islanders' second goal of the opening period before helping them reclaim the lead early in the third with the primary helper on Kyle Palmieri's go-ahead score. With Tuesday's performance in the books, the 25-year-old Maccelli has a goal, five points, a plus-2 rating and 12 shots on net across six outings. He's been grinding on the team's fourth line to keep his role as a depth winger over Kyle MacLean. Maccelli's current four-game point streak is one of the best of his six-year NHL career, and it's helping him trend towards fantasy relevance as a streaming option in deep leagues.

Islanders' Kyle Palmieri: Two goals including GWG
Palmieri notched two goals, including the game-winning tally, posted a plus-2 rating, put two shots on net and served two PIM in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Vancouver.
Palmieri played the hero in Tuesday's contest as he sparked the offense late in the first period with the opening goal before striking the game-winning tally early in the third period. The multi-goal performance was not only his first two-goal effort since Nov. 23, 2024, but it also marked his first two points of the 2026-27 season. It's encouraging to see the 35-year-old winger get back on the scoresheet after he tore his ACL in late November. If Tuesday's clash can help him spark steady offensive production, which he's showcased in nearly all of his 17 seasons at the NHL level, Palmieri should return to being a solid option in most fantasy formats.

Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Hangs on for win Tuesday
Sorokin turned aside 22 of 24 shots on net in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.
After a shaky second period, Sorokin gathered himself and kept the Canucks off the board in the third to help guide the Islanders to Tuesday's victory. Overall, the 31-year-old netminder now holds a 3-2-0 record, a shutout, a 1.81 GAA and a .934 save percentage across five appearances. He appears to be on track for another successful season, which makes the veteran netminder an elite fantasy option between the pipes moving forward. Expect Sorokin to challenge the 30-win threshold for the third time in the past five seasons.

Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Guarding cage versus Canucks
Sorokin will patrol the crease at home against Vancouver on Tuesday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Sorokin will look to bounce back from his worst outing of the season, giving up four goals on 25 shots in a loss to the Lightning on Saturday. Despite the poor performance, Sorokin is still sporting a 2-2-0 record and 1.76 GAA through four games this year.

Islanders' Mathew Barzal: No timeline for return
Barzal (knee) has been skating on his own, but there is no timeline for his return, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday on Monday.
Barzal hasn't played yet in the 2026-27 campaign. Once he resumes practicing with his teammates, a clearer picture of his timeline should emerge. Barzal posted 19 goals, 72 points and 184 shots on net in 81 appearances for the Islanders during the 2025-26 regular season.

Islanders' Dmitry Gamzin: Another strong start to season
Gamzin has a 4-3-0 record, a 1.75 GAA and a .918 save percentage over eight games with CSKA Moscow to start the 2026-27 KHL season.
Gamzin signed a two-year extension with CSKA back in January, so he won't be in North America until 2028-29. The Islanders are likely fine with that plan considering they have a stud goalie in Ilya Sorokin to handle the workload at the NHL level. Gamzin is already 23 years old, so he'll be developmentally close to a finished product if/when he arrives for the Islanders.

Islanders' Brayden Schenn: Nets power-play marker
Schenn scored a power-play goal on two shots, added four hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Lightning.
Schenn continued his strong start to the year with this tally. The veteran forward has two goals, three assists, 10 shots on net, 14 hits, three blocked shots, nine PIM and a plus-1 rating over five appearances. Schenn is playing on the second line and first power-play unit, which gives him a reliable floor for fantasy production, especially in leagues that reward his physicality.

Islanders' Matias Maccelli: Three-game assist streak
Maccelli delivered an assist Saturday in a 5-3 loss to the Lightning.
Maccelli has quietly put up an assist in each of his last three games. He is coming off a 39-point campaign in Toronto last season and has the playmaking to get back to the mid-50 range if the stars align over Long Island. Maccelli is motivated to make that happen. He's on a one-year contract and out to prove an extension is worth a team's time and cash.

Islanders' Jean-Gabriel Pageau: Hits 400-point plateau
Pageau scored a goal Saturday in a 5-3 loss to Tampa Bay.
He tipped a Matthew Schaefer shot for his first goal of the season. Pageau has three points (one goal, two assists), 13 hits, four shots and four blocks in five games this season. The goal was his 400th NHL point (175 goals, 225 assists); it came in Pageau's 867th game.

Islanders' Matthew Schaefer: On pace to shatter Bobby Orr record
Schaefer picked up an assist Saturday in a 5-3 loss to the Lightning.
Initially, Schaefer was credited with a goal that would have tied him with Bobby Orr for goals by a defender under 20, but the goal was given to Jean-Gabriel Pageau after a review. Schaefer has 23; Orr had 24. The former turned 19 in early September, so the record will be shattered this season. Who knew?

Islanders' Tony DeAngelo: First points of season
DeAngelo scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Lightning.
The points were his first this season. DeAngelo is averaging 16:40 so far, and his 16:33 was fifth among Isles' defenders on Saturday. Sheltered minutes 5v5 plus second-unit deployment on the power play means DeAngelo will deliver decent lower-risk production for fantasy managers.

Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Falls in duel with Vasilevskiy
Sorokin made 21 saves in a 5-3 loss to the Lightning on Saturday. He allowed four goals.
He and Andrei Vasilevskiy were locked in a duel until Brandon Hagel broke the tie at 18:16 of the third period. Sorokin has been lights out this season, recording a 2-2-0 record with one shutout, a 1.77 GAA and .937 save percentage. Prior to Saturday, he had allowed just three goals in three starts.

Islanders' Vladimir Dravecky: Massive performance in win
Dravecky scored twice and added three assists in OHL Guelph's 10-5 win over Owen Sound on Saturday.
Dravecky just signed his entry-level deal with the Islanders on Wednesday. He was a fifth-round pick in 2026, but his stock is rising fast. He's opened the campaign with nine points and a plus-8 rating over six contests for the Storm. He's in a great spot for offense with Guelph, but it'll be interesting to see how his defensive work progresses.

Islanders' Bo Horvat: Available for Saturday's clash
Horvat (upper body) is expected to be in Saturday's lineup for Saturday's home clash with the Lightning, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.
Horvat appears to be healthy after he received an illegal check to the head from Frank Nazar in Thursday's clash. The 31-year-old Horvathas put together a strong start to the 2026-27 campaign, posting four goals, five points, 14 shots on net and nine hits across four appearances. Barring any setbacks prior to Saturday's puck drop, the Islanders' captain will likely stay in the lineup as the team's top line center for the matchup with Tampa Bay.

Islanders' Ilya Sorokin: Set to start Saturday
Sorokin is expected to protect the home net against Tampa Bay on Saturday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.
Sorokin occupied the starter's crease during the morning skate and was the first goalie off the ice. While posting a 2-1-0 record in three outings this season, he has stopped 83 of 86 shots. Tampa Bay (3-1-0) has 11 goals in four contests this campaign.
