Marty Reasoner left the game after blocking a shot on his first shift of the second period (after 4:36 TOI), so there is a chance injury will add to fatigue in the challenges that Glendale will pose. Jack Capuano said afterward it is a broken thumb.
The fourth line center will be replaced by Jay Pandolfo tonight.
Andrew MacDonald, hip, and Marty Reasoner, knee, are both not skating for the Islanders today according to Arthur Staple of Newsday.
The team is believed to be taking a cautious approach with both.
Sounds like both should recover shortly. Stay tuned for further updates on the Isles' wounded.
The Islanders have locked him up as a bottom-six replacement for -- and upgrade over -- Zenon Konopka. Reportedly for two years, $2.5 million (or $2.7 million, according to Katie Strang).
