As expected, we all went to Iskhakov postgame tonight.

Once we got there, he said,' Holy moly. A lot of people,' with a smile.

He had a solid debut. Roy liked him. Roy said he had time for him.

More coming in the AM.

#Isles

'That was a little weird. I've never done that before. I think I did like six laps, [instead of] one. But, yeah, it was great.'

#Isles are off on Thursday. Will start the day with a story on Iskhakov, followed by Palmieri, before diving into playoff stuff.

Didn't have time for a space tonight, so if you have any questions, I'm around for a bit.

Just went through the comments on this. You guys are amazing. Means the world.
