Islanders have go-to duo in Adam Pelech-Ryan Pulock pair
NY Post
The NHL is still seeking a corporate sponsor for its Alliteration Award, but The Post has leaned that is has been won this year by the Islanders’ Pelech-Pulock Pair.
And no, none of that is technically true (well, it is not true at all), but that does nothing to diminish the importance of the Adam Pelech-Ryan Pulock pair as their team entered Thursday’s Game 3 of the Cup semifinals against the Lightning at the Coliseum. The emergence of the P-men as Barry Trotz’s primary matchup pair over the coach’s three years on the job not only has solidified the blue line, but provides an inkling of his approach to lineup construction and his method of dealing with young players with upside.More Related News
