Write it in pencil, but after another fairly quiet offseason, it is all lined up for the Identity Line to be rolled out yet again for the Islanders.
There is nothing set in stone, and nothing taken for granted, especially at this point in the calendar, with four weeks until training camp opens and a hair over 50 days until opening night against the Sabres.
The only one-way signing the Islanders made this offseason — Julien Gauthier — figures to impact their bottom-six. “Obviously Bo [Horvat] is an impactful player and Pierre [Engvall] is an impactful player for us,” Martin said. “To have both of them signed long term, to me, is a lot like free-agent additions. And then obviously having a few other guys re-sign — [Hudson Fasching] re-signed, he was great for us last year. And then we brought in Gauthier.”
“From playing against him, I think that’s something you really notice is that his speed can be a factor,” Martin said. “There’s small guys that are fast but when you’re big and fast, like Pierre Engvall, it’s hard to knock you off the puck. Obviously he’s moved around a couple times over the last few years. Hopefully he can establish himself and be a good part of this franchise.”
