Matthew Schaefer, the New York Islanders rookie defenseman, is making history with his impressive start to the season. Despite a three-to-one loss against the Boston Bruins, Schaefer earned an assist, marking his eighth point in November and placing him in an elite group of eighteen-year-old defensemen with multiple consecutive months of eight or more points. Schaefer, the first overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, has quickly proven his worth, scoring four goals and four assists in November. Hell continue to shine as the Islanders host the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday.
