Cole Bardreau was put in a familiar position, being asked to fill in as a call-up as the team deals with injuries to Cal Clutterbuck and Kyle Palmieri.
The 29-year-old Bardreau had only played in the NHL for 10 games during the 2019-20 season, but was responsible for a particularly memorable moment. Bardreau converted a penalty shot against Ottawa on Nov. 5, 2019 for his first NHL goal and the eventual game-winner. At the time, it helped keep a 10-game winning streak alive.
Asked to describe what he brings to the Isles, Bardreau described that of a stereotypical fourth-liner — the role he played on Friday: “I’m not trying to do too much out there,” he said. “Keep it simple and get it deep.”
