Islanders teammates happy to see Kyle Palmieri bust out: ‘awesome’

It was only a day before he broke his scoreless streak to start the season that Kyle Palmieri was telling Pete DeBoer that he wasn’t happy about how he was playing. And understandably so. Even coming off an ACL injury , Palmieri has a history of success in the NHL and was put on the Islanders’ top line for a reason. And going into Tuesday night , that top line had yet to be on the ice for a 5-on-5 goal. More specifically, Palmieri had yet to look like himself.
