Two years after failing to make the Islanders out of camp despite being on a long-term NHL contract and having missed all of last season following hip and ankle surgeries, it is on Pierre Engvall to prove his worth to the franchise.
asserted
it → fail → franchise
Whatever time and dollars he has left on his contract — four years and $12 million, to be exact — is no longer going to factor into the decision to have him on the roster, if it ever did.
asserted
it → leave → roster
If it wasn’t already clear that Engvall would need to fight for a spot on the 23-man roster by his placement on a line with Daylan Kuefler and Mitchell Chaffee, coach Pete DeBoer made it more explicit Friday.
“There’s a big group of other forwards there, Engvall included, that are trying to make a case for themselves,” DeBoer said.
asserted
DeBoer → need → themselves
As ever, Engvall’s frame and skating ability make him a compelling talent, if only he could put it all together.
uncertain
he → make → it
But the Islanders have a crowded room of forwards.
asserted
Islanders → have → forwards
Victor Eklund is knocking on the door.
asserted
Eklund → knock → door
Ondrej Palat, Anthony Duclair and Kyle MacLean are trying to keep their spots.
asserted
Palat → try → spots
Chaffee, who played under Mathieu Darche in Tampa, has NHL experience.
asserted
who → play → experience
Getting to 14 — or perhaps to 13, should they choose to carry three goaltenders — is going to require hard choices.
asserted
they → get → choices
“It’s obviously tough to be out of the team for that long,” Engvall told The Post on Thursday.
asserted
Engvall → ’ → Thursday
I had a good team around me that helped me.
asserted
that → have → me
Made it good for me, so I’m just glad to be back.
asserted
I → make → me
The Islanders scrimmaged on just the second day of camp Friday, a sign of how the shortening of training camp from 21 days to 13 will mean condensing every part of the operation, with Bo Horvat and Eklund both scoring in a 1-1 intrasquad tie.
asserted
Horvat → scrimmage → tie
“If I’m going to make an error — and there’s no right answer for it, I don’t think anyone knows — we’re going to make an error on trying to get into as many competitive situations as we can here before we get up and running,” DeBoer said.
asserted
DeBoer → go → situations
DeBoer has focused a lot of his energy on systems work, and he acknowledged Friday that there will be less experimenting with lines than previous years might have featured.
uncertain
years → focus → lines
In such a short period, everything has to be intentional.
asserted
everything → have → period
“We’ve got to get to power play and penalty killing, too,” DeBoer said.
asserted
DeBoer → get → play
“That’s the challenge for us.
asserted
That → ’ → us
In the short camp, the small number of games, small number of practices we have, we’ve got to try and get up to speed as quickly as possible.”
asserted
we → have → speed
Kuefler left the Islanders’ scrimmage injured, with no weight on his right leg.
asserted
Kuefler → leave → leg
Quinn Finley continues to practice in a red non-contact jersey.
asserted
Finley → continue → jersey
