New York Islanders winger Kyle Palmieri returned to practice for the first time this year and skated on the second line with Brock Nelson and Pierre Engvall. We discuss how Palmieri's return affects the line combinations and the battle for the final roster spots in training camp as five players are now likely battling for just two spots.

Plus, the Islanders face the Flyers tonight in Philadelphia in the fifth of six preseason games, we have a preview.

And we continue our player by player look at the Islanders roster with Ryan Pulock. What will his role with the Isles be and what does he need to do to have a successful season?

All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
