The New York Islanders head into training camp with intense roster battles at center and on defense. Mathew Barzal and Bo Horvat anchor the middle, but Brayden Schenn and Calum Ritchie are fighting for ice time. The blue line features a mix of veterans and rookies, with Matthew Schaefer pushing for a spot. We break down the goaltending situation with Ilya Sorokin, Semyon Varlamov, and Vitek Vanecek, and predict who makes the opening night roster. The Islanders, 6th in the Metropolitan Division, have a deep roster that could surprise. Will they make a trade to consolidate assets? We give our takes on who's trending up and who's on the bubble.
