Contrary to a prior report, Mayfield is healthy and will be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Avalanche, per Andrew Gross of Newsday. Mayfield will avoid missing his second game of the campaign. The right-shot blueliner should skate alongside Adam Pelech on the top pairing Tuesday.

Right-side defenseman Ryan Pulock, who has been playing impressive hockey as of late, is in the third year of an eight-year deal worth $6.15 million. Left-side defenseman Adam Pelech, who is also in the third year of an eight-year deal, carries an annual cap hit of $5.75 million.

The 5-10, 175-pound Perunovich logged 18:52 and was a plus-2 with two shots, earning enough of Roy’s trust to play key shifts in the third period.

The two new defensemen seem to fit in like a glove in a very small sample size.

Both can play quarterback on the power play, a skill the Islanders desperately need.
