Ethan Sears of the NY Post: 36-year-old New York Islanders forward Cal Clutterbuck hasn’t really thought about the idea of retirement. “I haven’t really thought of it, just because I’m not sure there’s anything to think about,” Clutterbuck told reporters on a Zoom call.
There have been few bright spots for the struggling New York Islanders this season. A lack of scoring from anyone not named Bo Horvat, Mat Barzal, Brock Nelson, and Kyle Palmieri has led the Islanders’ offense to another disappointing campaign.
Cal Clutterbuck scored twice in a span of 3:28 in the first period as the New York Islanders emphatically snapped a six-game losing streak with a 6-3 victory over the Winnipeg Jets Saturday afternoon in Elmont, N.Y.
As the New York Islanders take the ice later tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers, it’ll mark the thousandth time Cal Clutterbuck will skate in an NHL game.
The fourth line or “Identity Line” has been a staple of the New York Islanders and their recent success. The trio of Casey Cizikas, Cal Clutterbuck, and Matt Martin has provided the team with a great checking presence and defensive play that sets the tone and changes games.
Cal Clutterbuck posted his first two-goal game in more than a year and the New York Islanders took advantage of a spate of turnovers by the visiting Toronto Maple Leafs to earn a 7-2 win Tuesday in Elmont, N.Y.
He had missed close to two months with an upper-body injury, his third such issue of the season. In between missing those contests, the 35-year-old has put up four goals and four assists.
The New York Islanders have announced that forward Hudson Fasching has been activated off of the team’s injured reserve list in advance of tonight’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers. The move leaves the team with a full 23-man roster.
The New York Islanders are getting a huge boost ahead of their game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, activating Kyle Palmieri and Adam Pelech from injured reserve. Hudson Fasching has been moved to IR and Dennis Cholowski loaned to the AHL to make room.
After losing to the archrival Montreal Canadiens, the Toronto Maple Leafs will open a five-game homestand Monday night against the struggling New York Islanders.
New York Islanders President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Lou Lamoriello announced Saturday that veteran forward Cal Clutterbuck would be out indefinitely with an upper-body injury.
The New York Islanders have made several transactions today, starting with Cal Clutterbuck being placed on injured reserve.
It’s playoff hockey, and Tanev is bringing the passion to match the occasion.
