For the first time in his NHL career, the point production wasn’t there for Ryan Pulock. The Islanders defenseman had just 17 points and two goals in the 56 game season in 2021. It’s a major outlier considering his past three seasons.
From 2017-2018 through 2019-2020 Pulock had 29 goals and 104 points in 218 games.
