Islanders, Adam Pelech head to arbitration, stars against it
Islanders defenseman Adam Pelech was one of 17 NHL players to file for arbitration Sunday, while goalie Ilya Sorokin and winger Anthony Beauvillier did not despite being arbitration eligible. As one of the Islanders’ three restricted free agents, it makes sense that Pelech would elect arbitration considering he is expected to come out of this offseason with the most lucrative deal.
