TPS center and New York Islanders second-round pick in 2018 Ruslan Iskhakov has been listed as a healthy scratch by his team.
New York Islanders 2018 second-round pick Ruslan Iskhakov is out in Finland with Liiga side TPS for his pro-season. Through nine games so far, Iskhakov has five points on the season.
Things started off well for the Russian forward after making the jump from UConn to Finland. In a 3on3 pre-season tourney Iskhakov was tied with Edmonton Oilers prospect Jesse Puljujarvi as the tourney’s top scorer.
