Episode 78: Islanders Training Camp Day 1 & 2 with Joe Pantorno

Nassaumen Hockey Podcast

The New York Islanders are back in training camp, and Joe Pantorno returns to NHP with his thoughts on days one and two. Zdeno Chara is making an early impact as the young Noah Dobson walks in his shadow (8:28). Oliver Wahlstrom keeps the momentum from the 2020-21 season as he fits in with the veteran group (12:39). Zach Parise flanks likely linemate J.G. Pageau for the first few days and looks like himself again (20:19). Anders Lee returns happy and healthy, bringing the leadership back to ice and boosting overall morale (25:20). Anatoly Golyshev gets some reps with Lee and Mathew Barzal, but can he stick around in North America (30:28)? Aatu Raty makes a good first impression (34:14). Robin Salo is in a healthy fight to make the NHL roster out of camp (39:45), as is Erik Gustafsson who "could be a logical Nick Leddy replacement" if he wins a contract with the Islanders (42:20).
