Adam Pelech - Page 4 - NHL News & Rumors

Game-time call Monday Pelech (upper body) will be a game-time decision against the Leafs on Monday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

Impact Pelech looks poised to return versus Toronto after practicing with the team but coach Patrick Roy wouldn't go so far as to confirm the blueliner was ready to suit up. Injuries have limited the 29-year-old Pelech to a mere 25 outings this season in which he recorded four points, 19 hits and 42 blocks. At this point, Pelech will be hard-pressed to reach the 20-point threshold, a mark he hit in each of the previous two seasons.

Gets help on helper Pelech was credited with an assist in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Upon finding an open lane, Pelech fired the puck at the net and teammate Kyle Palmieri squared up at the doorstep for the deflected goal. It wasn't the prettiest way to get his team on the scoreboard, but between the helper, three blocked shots and four shots on goal, Pelech ended up with a fairly strong fantasy performance. The top-pairing defenseman has five goals, 14 assists and a plus-15 rating through 52 games.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Team-best rating Pelech is tied for the team lead with a rating of plus-13 entering the game Thursday versus the Penguins.

Impact If not for the concussion that Pelech suffered midseason that cost him 21 games, this likely would've been a career year for him. Pelech is already tied for his career high in goals with five, yet he has still been defensively responsible. The Islanders are trying to hold onto one of the two wildcard spots in the Eastern Conference and will need Pelech to be at his best in order to do so.
