It is probably time to start thinking of Pierre Engvall, Brock Nelson and Kyle Palmieri as the Islanders’ first line.
The first line label is, as coaches are fond of pointing out, largely a matter of semantics.
“They’ve done a terrific job here for a little while now of carrying a little bit of the offensive burden, continuing to do so,” coach Lane Lambert said. “I thought Brock was skating tonight, you can see it from the very beginning, when he’s moving his feet. Obviously we’ve said it before, Pierre, he skates. And Kyle goes to the net. Those guys are doing a really good job for us.”
Engvall, who has scored five goals with three assists as an Islander, has been one of the team’s best players night in and night out, using his size and speed to create chances.
