Islanders place D Ryan Pulock, G Marcus Hogberg on IR

January 27 - The New York Islanders placed defenseman Ryan Pulock and goaltender Marcus Hogberg on injured reserve on Monday due to upper-body injuries. The moves are retroactive to Saturday, when they were injured during a 3-2 overtime win against the Carolina Hurricanes. Pulock, 30, left the game on his first shift after getting a leg taken out by Carolina forward Jackson Blake behind the Islanders' net. Hogberg, 30, made 24 saves in regulation and was replaced by Ilya Sorokin for overtime. Hogberg appeared to injure his right hand after making a save on Shayne Gostibehere's shot before the two collided just outside the crease. "You don't like losing players, especially the way they were playing, they were playing really well for us," Islanders coach Patrick Roy said on Monday. "They're important players, but at the same time, it's a good opportunity for other guys to take advantage of it." In 48 games this season, Pulock has 16 points (three goals, 13 assists) with a plus-7 plus/minus rating, 10 penalty minutes and a team-high 105 blocks while averaging 21:55 of ice time. He has spent his entire career with the Islanders, who selected him 15th overall in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft. Pulock has 51 career goals, 156 assists, 101 penalty minutes and 1,003 blocks in averaging 21:17 of ice time in 534 regular-season games. Pulock also has eight goals and 19 assists in 66 playoff games. Hogberg is 2-2-0 in his first season with the Islanders with a 1.45 goals-against average and .947 save percentage in seven games (five starts). He signed a two-year contract as a free agent in May after parts of three seasons (2018-21) with the Ottawa Senators, who picked him in the third round of the 2013 draft. Hogberg is a career 11-19-9 with a 3.14 GAA and .900 save percentage in 49 games. In a corresponding move, the Islanders recalled goalie Jakub Skarek, 25, from Bridgeport of the American Hockey League. Skarek, who has yet to make his NHL debut, is 5-11-1 with a 3.22 GAA and .895 save percentage in 20 AHL games. The Islanders also acquired defenseman Scott Perunovich on Monday from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft. Perunovich, 26, has two goals and four assists in 24 games this season. A second-round draft pick in 2018, Perunovich has two goals and 27 assists in 97 career regular-season games and four assists in seven postseason games.
