Top Maxim Tsyplakov News

  • Devils' Maxim Tsyplakov: Acquired in trade

    Tsyplakov was obtained by New Jersey from the Islanders on Tuesday in exchange for Ondrej Palat, a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 sixth-round selection, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.

    Tsyplakov has contributed one goal, one assist, 22 shots on net and 46 hits across 27 appearances this season. His current contract runs through the 2026-26 campaign with a $2.25 million cap hit.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Snags assist Monday

    Tsyplakov notched an assist, two hits and two PIM in Monday's 4-0 win over the Flyers.

    Tsyplakov ended his 20-game point drought with the helper. He last got on the scoresheet with a goal Oct. 25, also against the Flyers, and he was scratched 22 times between points. Tsyplakov has a long way to go to be a regular in the lineup -- he drew in Monday because Simon Holmstrom (illness) and Calum Ritchie (lower body) were unavailable.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Playing time remains thin

    Tsyplakov has played in five of the Islanders' 11 games since the start of January after sitting out Saturday's 5-0 loss to the Sabres.

    Tsyplakov has filled a rotational role on the fourth line. The Islanders have a full complement of 14 healthy forwards currently, leaving Tsyplakov in a tough spot to get playing time. He's gone 20 games without a point while getting scratched 23 times in that span, and Tsyplakov has been limited to one goal, 21 shots and a minus-10 rating over 26 outings in total.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: In part-time role

    Tsyplakov was scratched for Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Golden Knights.

    This scratch came after five straight games in the lineup for Tsyplakov, who got bumped out by the return of Jean-Gabriel Pageau (upper body). Tsyplakov has done nothing to help his case for playing time -- he's gone without a point in his last 14 games while getting scratched eight times in that span. The 27-year-old has a meager one goal, 15 shots on net, 37 hits and a minus-6 rating over 20 appearances after putting up 10 goals and 35 points in 77 outings a year ago.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: First point of the season

    Tsyplakov scored a goal in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers on Saturday.

    Tsyplakov got his first goal and point of the season. He scored on a redirection of a point shot to put the Isles up 3-2 at 4:21 of the third period. He earned 35 points (10 goals, 25 assists) in 77 games last season. Tsyplakov's ice time Saturday was down to 8:26, and it's been as low as 6:36 this campaign. It will be tough for him to contribute much offensively if he doesn't get more playing time.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Signs two-year contract

    Tsyplakov penned a two-year, $4.5 million contract with the Islanders on Friday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

    Tsyplakov and the Islanders were slated to go to arbitration but avoid it with the deal. The 26-year-old had an up-and-down rookie season with New York, generating 10 goals and 25 assists across 77 regular-season contests. Tsyplakov is likely to see a middle-six role in 2025-26 and is expected to put up similar numbers as he did last season.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Strikes on power play in loss

    Tsyplakov scored a power-play goal on four shots and added three hits in Thursday's 9-2 loss to the Rangers.

    Tsyplakov has two goals and three assists over his last seven contests. This was his first power-play point since Nov. 23, though the Islanders' struggles with the man advantage have played a significant role in that. For the season, the winger has 10 goals, 35 points, 111 shots on net, 138 hits, 37 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 73 appearances.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Goal, assist in Nashville

    Tsyplakov registered a goal on two shots, an assist, three blocks and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Predators.

    Tsyplakov assisted on Simon Holmstrom's 20th goal of the campaign early in the middle frame, and the latter would return the favor shortly thereafter. This was Tsyplakov's first goal since March 16 -- he managed just four helpers over the 10 games between markers. The Russian winger is at nine goals, 34 points and a plus-8 rating through 72 appearances in 2024-25. Tsyplakov will more than likely fall shy of the 40-point mark but has transitioned fairly well to North American ice in his first NHL season after previously playing in the KHL.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Records assist in win

    Tsyplakov registered an assist and added five shots on net in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.

    Tsyplakov is on a nine-game goal drought, but he's managed four assists in that span. The 26-year-old winger is up to 32 points, 102 shots on net, 133 hits and a plus-4 rating over 70 appearances. Tsyplakov has regained a second-line role, which gives him a little more upside as a power winger to close out 2024-25.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Collects two apples Saturday

    Tsyplakov generated a pair of even-strength assists and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Flames.

    Tsyplakov logged the primary assist on goals by Marc Gatcomb and Kyle MacLean in this defeat. Tsyplakov's last multi-point effort prior to Saturday was in a 6-3 loss to Minnesota on Feb. 8. The Russian winger has supplied eight goals and 30 points through 64 appearances in his first NHL season. Tsyplakov could challenge for the 40-point mark if he's able to pick up the pace over the last few weeks of the campaign.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Puts away goal in win

    Tsyplakov scored a goal in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Panthers.

    Tsyplakov hadn't scored since Dec. 21 versus the Maple Leafs. That was a span of 26 games without a goal, during which he had eight assists, 35 shots on net, 34 hits and a minus-8 rating while watching his ice time plummet following a move to the fourth line since the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The 26-year-old winger was also suspended for three games and scratched twice during the slump. Tsyplakov is now at eight goals, 28 points, 84 shots on net, 121 hits, 33 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 61 appearances in his first NHL campaign.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Notches helper Sunday

    Tsyplakov recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Ducks.

    Tsyplakov set up a Tony DeAngelo tally in the third period to prevent the Islanders from getting shut out. This was Tsyplakov's second assist in his last three games, as it appears he's responded well following a healthy scratch March 1 versus the Predators. The 26-year-old winger is now at 27 points, 81 shots on net, 119 hits and a plus-6 rating through 58 appearances this season. He's in a third-line role for now, and that's likely where he'll stay to close out the campaign given the veteran talent in the Islanders' top six.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Registers assist in win

    Tsyplakov notched an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Jets.

    Tsyplakov ended a four-game slump with the helper. He was scratched once in that span as well as minutes get more competitive in the Islanders' lineup. Tsyplakov played at a 0.5 point-per-game pace through the end of December, but he has just seven helpers, 22 shots on net and 29 hits over his last 18 outings. The 26-year-old may simply be wearing down from the rigors of an NHL campaign -- he played a total of 76 contests with Spartak Moscow of the KHL in 2023-24 between the regular season and playoffs. He's already up to 56 appearances, earning 26 points, 77 shots, 118 hits and a plus-7 rating, in his first NHL season.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Nabs two apples in defeat

    Tsyplakov banked two even-strength assists Saturday in a 6-3 loss to the Wild.

    Tsyplakov has registered at least one assist in five of his last six games, but he hasn't scored since Dec. 21. The Russian winger has contributed seven goals, 18 helpers and a plus-9 rating through 51 appearances in his first season on North American ice. The 26-year-old has bounced around the lineup at times this season, but he's developed some chemistry on the second line with Brock Nelson and Kyle Palmieri of late. Tsyplakov will look to end his goal drought when the Islanders are back in action Feb. 23 against Dallas.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Pockets helper Thursday

    Tsyplakov registered an assist and five PIM in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.

    Tsyplakov had to answer the bell for his hit to the head of Ryan Poehling when these two teams previously met Jan. 16. He took care of it by fighting Scott Laughton at 4:51 of the first period, and that was the end of the aggression. Tsyplakov would add his helper as the Islanders' fourth line combined for the team's second goal, scored by Marc Gatcomb. The assist ended an 11-game point drought for Tsyplakov, who is unlikely to be very effective if he remains in the bottom six. He's at 20 points, 63 shots on net, 31 PIM, 102 hits and a plus-9 rating over 46 appearances, but the bulk of his offense has come when he's in a middle-six role.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Finishes serving suspension

    Tsyplakov is eligible to return to the lineup versus Carolina on Saturday after completing his three-game suspension.

    Tsyplakov received the three-game ban for an illegal hit to the head against Philadelphia's Ryan Poehling on Jan. 16. Tsyplakov has seven goals, 12 assists, 26 PIM and 101 hits across 44 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Receives three-game suspension

    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.

    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.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Having hearing with DPOS

    Tsyplakov will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Friday for an illegal check to the head of Philadelphia's Ryan Poehling (upper body) in Thursday's game.

    Tsyplakov was not penalized for the hit in the Flyers' 5-3 win over the Islanders. Poehling took a hit to the head at the 8:23 mark of the opening period and did not return. Tsyplakov has not picked up a point in his last 10 games and has seven goals and 19 points over 44 appearances this season.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Opens scoring in win

    Tsyplakov scored a goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.

    Tsyplakov has four goals and two assists over nine games in December. The 26-year-old isn't particularly explosive on offense, but he's been steady for a team in need of goals. He's up to 19 points, 48 shots on net, 87 hits, 22 PIM and a plus-12 rating through 34 contests in a top-six role.

  • Islanders' Maxim Tsyplakov: Offers helper in defeat

    Tsyplakov logged an assist, two PIM, one blocked shot and three hits in 16:12 of ice time in Sunday's 5-3 loss to Chicago.

    Tsyplakov recorded the secondary assist on Noah Dobson's third-period tally, which concluded the scoring for the Isles. Tsyplakov has points in back-to-back outings, but he hasn't a had a point streak of at least three games in his first NHL season. He'll be hard-pressed to accomplish that feat on the road Tuesday against a Hurricanes club that allows just 2.87 goals per game, ninth-fewest in the league. Tsyplakov has compiled six goals (one game-winner), 12 helpers, 22 PIM, 46 shots and a plus-9 rating through 32 contests.
