Ryder Korczak - Heads to AHLKorczak (upper body) was assigned to AHL Hartford on Saturday.
ImpactKorczak had been dealing with an injury during training camp, but his move to the minors suggests a return to action should be near. The 22-year-old forward earned nine goals and 20 points in 67 games with AHL Hartford during the 2023-24 regular season. Korczak will probably spend most, if not all, of this campaign in the minors. He hasn't received the chance to make his NHL debut yet.

Bo Horvat - Nets two goals vs. RangersHorvat bagged two goals (on five shots) in Friday's 5-2 preseason win over the Rangers.

Maxim Tsyplakov - Bags powerplay goalTsyplakov bagged a goal (on three shots) and added an assist in Friday's 5-2 preseason win over the Rangers.
ImpactTsyplakov was outstanding in the powerplay, as both of his goal contributions in this "Battle of New York" came with the man advantage -- he set up Bo Horvat's goal in the final minutes of the first period and later gave the Isles the lead with less than a minute to go in the second frame. Tsyplakov had 31 goals and 47 points in 63 regular-season contests with the KHL's Moscow Spartak in 2023-24, and based on what he's shown in the preseason, he's expected to have a role as a top-six forward for the Isles once they begin their regular-season play against Utah on Oct. 10.
