New York Islanders News

The Bruins have acquired Mike Reilly from the Senators for a 2022 third-round draft pick.

Reilly is a solid bottom-4 defenseman that can provide some offensive punch, particularly on the power-play. With Charlie McAvoy and Matt Grzelcyk dealing with injuries, the Bruins were looking for some veteran insurance. The 27-year-old blueliner is still looking for his first goal of the season but has collected 19 assists in 40 games.

Palmieri will make his Islanders debut on Thursday.

Because Palmieri was able to drive from New Jersey after Wednesday's trade, quarantine is not required, so he'll immediately make his Islanders debut. It's unclear where he will play in his first game with his new team but you have to think the Islanders envision him as a replacement for Anders Lee on the top line and PP1.
