We have a special edition of the Eyes on Isles Podcast this week. First, we FINALLY have the details of the Ilya Sorokin, Anthony Beauvillier, Casey Cizikas, and Kyle Palmieri contracts after the Islanders officially announced the deals today.

Mitch and I will get into the details of each deal and what we think about the compensation for each player. Also, we’ll discuss the impact on the cap and what it means for the Islanders quest for a defenseman.

The second topic, we’re happy to share our conversation with Denis Potvin on his NFT project. Both Potvin and Bryan Trottier have teamed up on this project and I got to speak to Denis about it and his time with the Islanders.

I’m beyond appreciative of Denis for giving me the time on the phone to find out more about his exclusive release of these Nassau Coliseum NFTs.

Lastly, Mitch will get into Down on the Farm and what’s happening prospect-wise. Here’s what you can expect from episode 211:
