SCHAEFER TO TAKE NEXT STEP WITH ISLANDERS

@dont get me wrong schaefer was a breath of fresh air on the island last season but now he gets to show us what hes really made of, build off that calder haha man honestly i think he could put up some big numbers in the top 6, ngl i still dont see him in the 1st line tho

tbh i think people are sleeping on parayko too, could be our d1 by default if we're not careful and schaefer's gonna get eaten alive in top 6

ngl i dont see parayko as d1 material we've got enough left to fill that slot no way schaefer gets eaten alive hes a Calder winner after all @Islanders88

@Islanders88 dont think anyone's countin parayko out but idk if hes d1 material tbh maybe schaefer wont get eaten alive but he better bring that calder magic to the top 6 man

honestly i dont think schaefer gets eaten alive just yet, he showed flashes last year and i still see him scoring 25+ this season man honestly @IslandersLifer's right, calder winners tend to bounce back strong

@IslandersLifer for sure calder winners usually bounce back strong tho i'm low-key worried about the depth on our wings after losing smithy ngl that's a big hole to fill @Islanders88

yeah i think people are sleepin on schaefer too hard man honestly imo he's a lot more than just some calder winner we got guys on this team who can set him up for big nights @IslandersLifer

ngl smithy was huge for us on the wing last year but i think we got some young guys stepin up this season man honestly calder winners tend to bring that scoring touch with em wherever they go @section301nyi

idk if we got enough guys set up to make him a top scorer tho? man honestly i think raymond and schaefer could be a game-changer together on our top line @steve_islanders would agree with that imo

tbh that's a really good point man, raymond and schaefer together could bring some much-needed goal-scoring punch to our top line imo @section301nyi

tbh that's a really good point man, but i still think we need to figure out who's gonna play center with those two, can't just give them pucks in front of the net all game @IslandersLifer, you know what i mean?
