Islanders' Tomas Poletin: Pair of goals in WHL loss
Rotowire
Poletin scored two goals in WHL Kelowna's 3-2 overtime loss to Spokane on Wednesday.
Poletin did his part for the Rockets, but it wasn't quite enough. The winger is up to seven goals and four assists over 12 outings this season. The Islanders prospect should continue to be an important part of Kelowna's offense throughout the campaign.

Poletin scored twice in WHL Kelowna's 5-4 shootout loss to Victoria on Friday.
Poletin has a pair of multi-goal games and three multi-point efforts to his name this season. The Czech forward has five goals, four assists and a plus-7 rating over nine outings with Kelowna to start the season. The Islanders prospect's strong start to the year is a positive sign as he looks to build on putting up 35 points over 43 regular-season outings last year.

Poletin scored twice in WHL Kelowna's 3-2 overtime win over Portland on Friday.
Poletin has earned three goals and three assists across six outings for the Rockets this season. The Czech forward also has 12 shots on net. He's a fourth-round pick of the Islanders from 2025, so it'll be a while before he gets a look in the NHL as he works on a longer developmental track.

Islanders' Tomas Poletin: Two goals in WHL win
Rotowire
Poletin scored twice on seven shots in WHL Kelowna's 5-4 overtime loss to Lethbridge on Friday.
Poletin has turned up the offense with five goals and two assists over his last six games. On the year, he has 11 tallies and 16 points in 15 contests. The Islanders' prospect, a fourth-round pick in 2025, likely needed some time to adjust to the North American junior ranks after splitting time between junior and men's leagues in Finland last year. Poletin projects as a bottom-six regular, but his play in the WHL is encouraging for his goal-scoring skill.
