SCHENN TO PLAY WITH PALAT AND RITCHIE<\/p>\n

Brayden\u00a0Schenn took line rushes centering a line with Ondrej Palat and Cal Ritchie.<\/p>\n

Ritchie, who has been primarily playing at center, will shift to wing. He said he’s excited to have a line with a pair of veterans who can help the 20-year-old in his rookie NHL season, as the two got to connect during Schenn’s first skate.<\/p>\n

“The role that [Schenn] can play with a guy like Ritchie, just saw this morning in the ice working with him,” Head Coach Patrick Roy said. “I think he’s going to be a great mentor to Ritchie. He’s going to help him, it’s nice to see that leadership right away.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ondrej Palat is another veteran winger that can help the line, as Roy said he brings stability and experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The New York Islanders hit the ice for morning skate on Saturday at SAP Center, ahead of their…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":209603,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[88,90,89],"class_list":{"0":"post-209602","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-jose","8":"tag-san-jose","9":"tag-san-jose-headlines","10":"tag-san-jose-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209602","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209602"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209602\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209603"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209602"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209602"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209602"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
