Tsyplakov Chat On Tuesday night, the New York Islanders [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-york-islanders/] host the surging Los Angeles Kings. That means they'll be going up against the legend that is Anze Kopitar, who, at 37, is still playing a tremendous brand of hockey. His 31 points (eight goals, 23 assists) lead Los Angeles. But the real kicker of a stat is that Kopitar is the only player in the NHL to play in all games for his team but rack up a total of ZERO penalty minutes and average over a point-per-game pace, per Kings PR. Right now, he's averaging 1.15 points per game.

In 2015-16, Kopitar ended the season with 16 penalty minutes. However, in 2022-23, he took just two minor penalties for a career-low of four penalty minutes, which still holds him as a career-best. Last season, Kopitar was in the box for 22 minutes. Maybe he'll drop the gloves with Matt Martin...kidding.
