2024 Fantasy Outlook

Tsyplakov signed a one-year, entry-level contract with the Islanders in May following a breakout season with Spartak Moscow of the KHL. The 25-year-old winger racked up 31 goals and 47 points in 65 regular-season contests before adding two goals and two assists in 11 playoff outings. Tsyplakov will get every opportunity to land a middle-six role with the Islanders out of training camp. He has plenty of sleeper value if he meshes well alongside Brock Nelson and Kyle Palmieri, who were both productive players last season. Tsyplakov is worth monitoring during camp, and he could be worthy of a late-round selection in fantasy drafts. Read Past Outlooks

Receives three-game suspension

Suspension

January 17, 2025

The NHL handed Tsyplakov a three-game suspension for an illegal check to the head of Ryan Poehling (upper body) during Thursday's 5-3 win over the Flyers.

ANALYSIS
Tsyplakov wasn't assessed a penalty on the play, but Poehling exited the game and won't be available for the Flyers' tilt against the Devils on Saturday. The 26-year-old Tsyplakov will be eligible to return Jan. 25 versus Carolina. He has seven goals, 19 points, 26 PIM and 101 hits in 44 outings in 2024-25. His absence might push Marc Gatcomb, who was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Friday, into the lineup.
