Casey Cizikas was his usual self for the Islanders in 2020, and they’ll need more of that from him in 2021 to have success.
There’s no denying, the New York Islanders are a better team when Casey Cizikas is on the ice for them. For the majority of his Islanders tenure, and especially under Barry Trotz, the fourth line is a key portion of the team.
2018-2019 saw Cizikas break out for a 20 goal and 33 point season. This past year, his goal pace came back to earth a little bit but he was still his solid presence on line four with 10 goals and 14 points in 48 games.
