Maxim Tsyplakov signed a two-year contract with the New York Islanders worth $4.5 million, providing both parties time to evaluate his NHL performance. In his rookie season, Tsyplakov scored 10 goals and earned 35 points over 77 games, demonstrating adaptability between the fourth line and top-six roles. Following a strong 31-goal season in the KHL, he has the potential for increased production, possibly reaching 20 goals and over 40 points in the upcoming season. His physical style of play complements the Islanders' strategy, and the contract allows for potential future negotiations as a UFA.
Tsyplakov's two-year, $4.5 million contract gives the Islanders the opportunity to assess his performance and potential impact in the upcoming seasons.
After scoring 10 goals and totaling 35 points in his rookie season, Tsyplakov is poised for a potentially breakout second year with expectations to reach 20 goals.
