Hudson Fasching is set to join the Islanders' lineup after recovering from off-season injuries that affected his training camp and preseason performance. He recently played five games with the Bridgeport Islanders, recording one goal and one assist. His inclusion comes as the team looks to revamp its fourth line, replacing Matt Martin, who logged limited ice time in the last game.

Hudson Fasching skated on the fourth line during practice, joining Kyle MacLean and Pierre Engvall. Roy indicated that finding the right fit for this line is a work in progress, expressing hope that Fasching or another player will seize the opportunity to solidify their role.

Hudson Fasching was recalled on loan from Bridgeport of the AHL, indicating his potential role in contributing to the Islanders' roster as they navigate player injuries and adjustments.

Hudson Fasching is expected to start the season on the NHL roster as a right winger for the New York Islanders.

Hudson Fasching struggled in the New York Islanders' bottom six last season, providing minimal offense and average-at-best defense. The team may look to trade or send him to the AHL to address the shortcomings in the lineup.
