NHL Rumors: Extra Schenn and the New York Islanders
On paper, the Islanders have loads of over-30 veterans to ponder buying and selling. Scott Mayfield, Ryan Pulock, and Adam Pelech for starters. Add within the ahead corps of Jean-Gabriel Pageau, Kyle Palmieri, and extra. Even a Tony DeAngelo may entice one thing maybe.
