The New York Islanders waived Dennis Cholowski on Thursday afternoon. Cholowski, 27, played 33 games this season, recording three goals and 10 points. The move had been widely anticipated in the wake of Scott Mayfield and Ryan Pulock’s return to practice.
That was a fun Saturday, wasn’t it? The NHL returned with a bang on Saturday with a massive slate of 14 games. The highlights for you New York Islanders fans include the New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins getting humiliated in blowout losses.
The New York Rangers must rebound quickly after an embarrassing loss the night before; and plenty of NHL news, including the Islanders getting very healthy on defense.
