Tony DeAngelo is “fortunate” and “grateful” for opportunity with Isles, looking to impact power play and on defense

That was a significant reason the Islanders signed Tony DeAngelo, a known power-play specialist, on Friday before trading for Scott Perunovich on Monday. In DeAngelo's season debut, a 3-2 overtime win against the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday, the power play went 0-for-3 with just two shots on goal.

In the span of seven weeks, Tony DeAngelo has gone from believing his NHL career is over to being a New York Islander.

Tony DeAngelo is signing with the Islanders for the rest of the 2024-25 season after leaving his Russian team earlier this month.

Tony DeAngelo’s timing could not have been much better. Just two weeks ago, the former New York Rangers, Carolina Hurricanes, and Philadelphia Flyers defenseman was playing with St. Petersburg in the Russian KHL.

Tony DeAngelo may have been signed to fill the Noah Dobson void, but his game is more similar to the injured Mike Reilly.

Tony DeAngelo’s first morning on Long Island consisted of a quick skate, a short introduction to his new teammates and getting ready to play in his first game in the new digs.

The New York Islanders signed defenseman Tony DeAngelo for the remainder of the season, after a brief stint in the KHL.

The biggest story is that the Islanders have won six of their last eight games! Not some trade or anything like
