Islanders Bet on Maccelli's Upside | NHL News

The Islanders just pulled off a savvy move by signing 26-year-old Matias Maccelli, a dynamic young winger with serious upside. Drafted in 2019, Maccelli brings elite playmaking and scoring ability — 57 points last season with the Coyotes, 39 points with Toronto — while averaging over 14 minutes per game. Though his plus/minus isn’t stellar, his offensive production and youth make him a perfect fit as a middle-six weapon. With 118 career assists and a spot on the All-Rookie Team, Maccelli’s potential is undeniable. Signed to a one-year deal, he’s now in position to earn a long-term role — and could be a key piece in the Islanders’ future.
