Overview
- The Department of Player Safety is not issuing supplemental discipline, leaving Rantanen eligible for Dallas’ game in Vancouver on Thursday.
- Rantanen received a five-minute major and automatic game misconduct for shoving Alexander Romanov into the end boards in the final minute.
- The Islanders offered no firm update on Romanov, who did not require a hospital visit, with concern noted due to his prior shoulder surgery.
- Islanders coach Patrick Roy denounced the play as disrespectful, while Stars coach Glen Gulutzan said Rantanen was off-balance after contact from Scott Mayfield.
- If Romanov cannot go on the trip, reporters noted Adam Boqvist is available to step in, with potential minor-league call-ups under consideration.
