The Islanders host the Devils for their 2026-27 home opener Saturday night. They’re on a 7-0-1 run against the Devils so expect a certain loss.
Here are the tweaked lines as Pete DeBoer searches for chemistry, whether or not he has the elements and molecules to find it:
mil Heineman – Bo Horvat – Kyle Palmieri
Simon Holmström – JG Pageau – Anthony Duclair
Victor Eklund – Cal Ritchie – Brayden Schenn
Ondřej Palát – Casey Cizikas – Matias Maccelli
Adam Pelech – Matthew Schaefer
Alexander Romanov – Ryan Pulock
Logan Stanley – Tony DeAngelo
