Scott Mayfield believes in the Islanders’ future.
Said Hudson Fasching, who signed for two years at $775,000 per season: “It felt really good to have that contract signed and to be coming back here. I wanted to be able to come back here.”Said Pierre Engvall, who signed for seven years at $3 million per season after coming over from Toronto in a: “I just didn’t know how they were gonna be able to fit all the guys or anything about that. We were able to do something good for everyone. I think everyone’s really happy with how it worked out.
The way Lamoriello did end up navigating the team’s cap dilemma — he also had to re-sign Semyon Varlamov andThat allowed the Islanders to keep everyone they wanted to keep, but they are already on the books for $49.55 million in cap dollars for the 2026-27 season — which will almost assuredly translate to more than 50 percent of that season’s salary cap, even if there are considerable spikes between now and then.
Mayfield is one of three defensemen the Islanders have under contract through 2029, along with Ryan Pulock and Adam Pelech. Add into the mix Noah Dobson and Alexander Romanov, two young defensemen who should both re-sign upon hitting restricted free agency in 2026, and the Isles feel as though they can be set on the back end for the foreseeable future.
“Me, Pelly and Pulock all came up together through Bridgeport,” Mayfield said. “We’ve spent a lot of time together, families all hang out. It’s definitely special. We have a special thing here. “Now it’s [about] finding that next level, because we kinda knocked on the door, but we gotta make sure we find that little bit more now.”
