The New York Islanders are looking to get more offensive out of their lineup from last season. Guys like Michael Dal Colle were going to be given an increased role and asked to do something with it in 2019-20.
So far in this short season, he hasn’t done much with it. Sure, it’s still early but it’s not early enough for Barry Trotz to change things around with the roster.
So does Michael Dal Colle deserve that top-six spot?
He Hasn’t Been Bad
In three games this season Dal Colle has been given top-six minutes by Barry Trotz.
