The New York Islanders start the season 0-3 with their most recent loss to the Winnipeg Jets. Despite it being another disappointing game, Matthew Schaefer continues to impress with three points in his first three games. When Schaefer jumps over the boards onto the ice, it sends the fans onto the edge of their seat with his elite skating and high IQ vision. Schaefer played a new season high of 26:35 against the Jets, while the next closest defenseman was Tony DeAngelo, who played 17:46. Schaefer led the back end with shots on goal and is earning every shift Patrick Roy gives him.
