New York Islanders winger Max Tsyplakov has filed for salary cap arbitration. Tsyplakov, 26, had 35 points (10 goals, 25 assist) in 77 NHL games in 2024-25. He was a regular in the Islanders lineup for most of the season, primarily spending his time in the middle-six. The Islanders signed Tsyplakov to a one-year, $950,000 deal last offseason as an international free agent.
