Potential Lineups
New York Islanders
The blue and orange will definitely be making some changes tonight. The Islanders faced some tough injury luck against the Rangers with both Andy Greene and Michael Dal Colle leaving the game injured.
Both players are listed as day to day and their injuries do not seem to be long term. There will be more news about the players in the coming hours.
It remains to see who actually plays tonight but we got a good indication that Andy Greene and Cal Clutterbuck might not be fit enough to face the St Louis Blues tonight. Neither was taking part in line drills at the morning skate
The Islanders should line up like this tonight:
Lee-Barzal-Eberle
Beauvillier-Nelson-Brassard
Dal Colle-Pageau-Bailey
Martin-Koivula-Komarov
Leddy-Pulock
Toews-Mayfield
Dobson-Boychuk
Greiss (Varlamov)
Dobson will step in for Andy Greene and play on his off-side again
Greiss is going to get his first start in a while. After an 0.857SV% night against the Rangers, Semyon Varlamov is going to be the backup for tonight. It’s Greiss’s first start since that clunker against the Nashville Predators back on February 13.
St. Louis Blues
The Blues are still missing two of their top players. They are missing Tarasenko and Jay Bouwmeester. Bouwmeester is out for the rest of the season after suffering a cardiac episode on the bench during a game. We wish Jay the best on his road to recovery!
Those two injuries have not stopped the Blues at all! They are currently on fire and are expected to keep the same lineup they have had for most of the win streak.
Here’s how the Blues should line up:
Schwartz-O’Rielly-Schenn
Sanford-Thomas-Perron
Steen-Bozak-Kyrou
Barbashev-Sundqvist-Blias
Gunnarsson-Pieterangelo
Scandella-Parayko
Dunn-Faulk
Binnington (Allen)
