DeAngelo Stays, Lee Leaves in Cap Shuffle | NHL News
Description
The Islanders navigated a tight salary cap this offseason, making tough roster decisions while eyeing a potential $40M cap space next summer. Captain Anders Lee departed for the Utah Mammoth in free agency, but they secured key defenseman Tony DeAngelo with a two-year extension—highlighting his irreplaceable value. DeAngelo, a right-shot puck-mover with 54 points in 111 games for the Islanders, was sorely missed last season when injured, directly impacting their playoff push. His veteran presence, combined with a strong defensive core anchored by Pelech, Pulock, Mayfield, and Romanov, makes him essential to their future success alongside star Matthew Schafer.
