The Islanders have defensive depth. It was not quite so predictable they would be getting this kind of production from their third pair.
Coming into the season, it was easy to see the Islanders had defensive depth. It was not quite so predictable that they would be getting this kind of production from their third pair.
The top four — Adam Pelech and Ryan Pulock, followed by Alexander Romanov and Noah Dobson — was perhaps the most obvious strength of this team. Mayfield and Aho, though, have earned a 51.06 expected goals percentage, with the Islanders out-chancing and outshooting opponents with them on the ice, per Natural Stat Trick.
Mayfield’s game has never been offensively inclined — part of the reason he’s on pace for career highs is because he’s never scored more than five goals nor assisted on more than 15 in a season — but he’s shown a new inclination to get up on the play this season. As for Aho, his lack of killer errors in the defensive zone is a needed development, clearing the way for his offensive ability to shine.
