Islanders Podcast Preview: Ryan Pulock Contract & Impact On Barzal

The Eyes on Isles Podcast returns for episode number 168 as Matt and Mitch will discuss all things New York Islanders on and off the ice.

We’re back for another episode of the Eyes on Isles Podcast! This week we have some breaking Islanders news to talk about thank God, as Ryan Pulock signed a deal to avoid arbitration with the team.

He inked a two-year $5 million AAV deal to stay with the team. We’ll get into what this contract means for the Islanders and Pulock. There’s another deal we have to keep an eye on and that’s Mathew Barzal.

After Pulock got a bridge deal do we see another one for Barzal also? We’ll take a look into what Barzal can get and what the AAV would look like.

Lastly, we’ll take an early look at the lines and what they can be for the 2021 season. Will there be any surprises from Barry Trotz and company this year?

Here’s what you can expect from episode 168:
