Lineups

New York Islanders

Coming off the overtime win against the Stars, on Tuesday, and no practice yesterday, I do not see the Isles making any changes.

Kieffer Bellows looked solid in his NHL debut having 9:10 of ice time and there is absolutely no reason to take him out of the lineup. Also, I would expect Seymon Varlamov to stay in between the pipes after making some crucial saves in third, on Tuesday, to force the game into overtime and ultimately getting the win.

With a crucial two points on the line against, a weak opponent, and their next game two days away, the blue and orange will keep the same lineup to keep pace in a tight playoff race. The Isles should line up like this tonight:

Lee-Barzal-Eberle
Beauvillier-Nelson-Bailey
Bellows-Brassard-Dal Colle
Martin-Cizikas-Komarov

Leddy-Pulock
Toews-Mayfield
Dobson-Boychuck

Varlamov (Greiss)

Los Angeles Kings

After last night’s trade with the Toronto Maple Leafs, we will see a new Kings lineup that will include Trevor Moore.

Also, with Jack Campbell heading to Toronto, it looks like Jonathan Quick will have the start tonight.

Iafallo-Kopitar-Brown
Grundstrum-Carter-Toffoli
Kempe-Lizotte-Wagner
Moore-Amadio-Lewis

Martinez-Doughty
Hutton-Roy
MacDermid-Walker

Quick (Petersen)
