Potential Lineups

New York Islanders

One thing is for certain going into tonight’s game: The Islanders will make lineup changes.

The first change is on the blueline, where we will see Noah Dobson come in for the injured Johnny Boychuck.

Then for the forwards, it is expected that Otto Koivula comes in for Leo Komarov.

The last change will be in the net where Semyon Varlamov will start in place of Greiss, who got pulled after the first period Tuesday night.

The Islanders are expected to line up like this tonight:

Lee-Barzal-Eberle
Dal Colle-Nelson-Brassard
Beauvillier-Pageau-Bailey
Martin-Koivula-Clutterbuck

Greene-Pulock
Toews-Mayfield
Leddy-Dobson

Varlamov (Greiss)

Ottawa Senators

The Senators are led by their top line of Brady Tkachuk, Chris Tierney and Connor Brown. That is one line the Islanders need to shut down to have success in tonight’s game.

The Sens have had bad luck on the injury front with Christian Wolanin, Mark Borowiecki and Anders Nilsson all on the injured reserve.

Also, Marcus Hogberg and Artem Anisimov are both day-to-day and are not expected to play tonight.

Anthony Duclair is expected to be back in the lineup tonight after being day-to-day.

The Senators are expected to line up like this tonight:

Tkachuk-Tierney-Brown
Balcers-White-Ryan
Duclair-Paul-Hawryluk
Boedker-Peca-Sabourin

Chabot-Hainsey
Reilly-Zaitsev
Englund-Jaros

Anderson (Gustavsson)
