The New York Islanders face a significant challenge with key players injured, including center Jean-Gabriel Pageau and defenseman Alexander Romanov. Pageaus upper-body injury and Romanovs shoulder surgery will keep them out for an extended period, impacting the teams offensive and defensive strategies. Pageaus absence, in particular, is a double blow as he contributes significantly to scoring and face-offs. The team must now rely on the remaining roster to fill these crucial roles and maintain their competitive edge.
