Meanwhile, Oliver Wahlstrom also had an assist in Sunday’s 4-2 road win over the Devils. But he may have a hard time making the opening night roster if Tsyplakov and Holmstrom continue to impress.
Hogberg signed a two-year contract with NewYork in May -- he'll likely start the season with AHL Bridgeport so long as the Islanders' netminders Ilya Sorokin and Semyon Varlamov are healthy.
