Former New York Islanders center Pierre Turgeon will be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame with the class of 2023. Turgeon was an electric offensive weapon for the Isles and was a major reason for the team’s success in 1993. He was also the victim of one of the worst cheap shots in NHL history in the playoffs that year courtesy of Dale Hunter.
The Isles preseason schedule has been released, we go over that and what to look for in the preseason and we discuss what this team still needs to do during the rest of this offseason.
All this and more on today’s Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.

He did well for the Isles!
I’m looking forward to seeing how the young guys are progressing. That’s the only reason why I’m interested in the preseason. Is to watch our young prospects that are close and or have a shot at making the roster, play their hearts out! Good job as per the norm. Tell the next time Gil🤘
Way to go sneaky pete. Last isle 50 g 100 pt. player. Bow tie traded one h of famer lafontaine for another in a deal/deals that transformed isles into a team that had to be taken seriously. pens didn't get the memo in '93 patrick final. fkn maloney's trade of sneaky pete for kirk (i don't want to play for isles) muller began the isles mid-'90's slide into oblivion. And fk dale hunter too. Hunter should be hog tied and forced to watch the hall festivities wishing he was in the hockey hall. Biggest scumbag and undeserving 1000 pt. player in nhl history. Only got 1000 by averaging 50 pts. over 20 seasons. Cupless too even after trying to parasite a cup off of '00 av's.
And what needs to be done-get two top six goal scorers. Debrincat 5 team trade list shockingly doesn't include isles. Will probably end up with wings as another east team improves. Also get cap space, picks, younger. Doubtful. I'm sure lou has the 'I'll deal my '24 first for bottom six/d man help' sign out. Meanwhile jets are ready to deal. Helleybuck will end up in division with pens who have cap space but no assets or nj who has cap space and assets.
I still see red when I hear D.H.’s name
