Have to go back and watch, but it looks like Matthew Schaefer became the first to play all 5 mins of overtime in NYI's 4-3 shootout win in Nashville.
Islanders gave him a breather with a timeout before powerplay at 2:17 of OT, but he was out there for all of it.
Unbelievable
According to @StatsPerform the 5:00 OT shift by Matthew Schaefer tonight was the first time a player played all 5 minutes of OT in post lockout era. @WillyD1025
Schaefer is the elite of elite.

DeBoer on Schaefer:
“I think every part of his game is better than it was a year ago, and the scary part is he's got more levels to go to here. He's not 25. He's only 19.”
Where has No. 48 improved most? Bo Horvat weighs in.

This is why Stef deserves the big bucks 💯
Great insight into what's really happening with #Isles
Per @AHLTransactions, the #Isles recalled Aitcheson & Engvall from Hamilton (paper transactions; they won't play) after placing Maccelli & Ritchie on IR.
Why did they make these moves?

Pete DeBoer warned it could take months for the #Isles to master his system.
Through 10 games, the buy-in is already evident.
Took a deep dive into the numbers, the roles of each line and defensive pairing, and why it's working @TheElmonters ⤵️

When Schaefer is THIS good, you don’t wait 3-5 years for the other prospects to develop into 50-point NHL regulars
Sell high now on 2 of ‘em. Go get the immediate star help you need
Planning for Year 6 is silly. By that point, if #Isles haven’t won, Schaef will be gone. WIN NOW
Schaefer making his presence known 🔥
#Isles sophomore leads the league.
Best news if you’re an #Isles fan
Pete is the real deal 🔥
Playing well? Winning? Every NHL club, 2026-27 so far: 5v5 expected-goal share against points %.
Winning while getting outplayed: SEA
Losing on even or better play: PIT, CBJ, LAK, CGY
Results that don't match the play tend to move toward it.

They remember the Snake game 🐍

I watched the interview.
Darche said nothing explicit nor implied that there was some rift with Barzal.
Even his body language was honest.
This injury is an art, not a science. They’ll see how it goes. Is what it is. Test & tinker.
Quit your silly narratives.
#Isles
“He has a big say because it’s his body. He knows how he feels.”
Darche's comments on Barzal sparked plenty of reaction.
I see it differently, and there's more to his recovery than a timeline.

Over the last five games, NYI has 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 10th lowest defensemen for 5v5 shot-attempt-against rate (minimum 40 minutes).
TBL and ANA are 7th and 11th for 5v5 shot attempt rate, on the season.... TOR 24th, OTT 29th, VAN 31st.

See: “He who must not be named.”

You gotta have big b@lls.
Buy the bottom and be right.
Sell and name your price.
#Isles
Not overly bullish on Voronkov’s consistency but I did say earlier this week #Isles are missing a 6’3”-6’5” 220+ F
If you think Pete can make him a 30-30 instead of a 18-18, you pull trigger
Big bodies seem so hard to get these days
