Ruslan Iskhakov Could Make NHL Debut Wednesday
8 months agoNew York Islanders forward prospect Ruslan Iskhakov could make his NHL debut on Wednesday when the team hosts the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins. The Isles recalled the 23-year-old from AHL Bridgeport on Wednesday which could lead to his NHL debut with the club locked into the No. 3 seed in the Metropolitan Division and perhaps looking to rest a forward or two before they clash with the Carolina Hurricanes in round one of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Iskhakov has tallied 18 goals and 50 points across 69 games with Bridgeport this season, nearly identical to his 17 goals and 51 points across another 69 games with the team last season.
