EAST MEADOW, NY -- New York Islanders head coach Patrick Roy is scratching veteran defenseman Scott Mayfield against the New York Rangers on Tuesday night.
If the New York Islanders want to activate defenseman Noah Dobson out of long-term injured reserve before their game against the New York Rangers, they need to have a roster spot available.
When we spoke with New York Islanders general manager Lou Lamoriello in Tampa on Feb. 1, he shared that goalie Marcus Hogberg's injury was a "four-week situation" with the hope that he'd be back when the schedule resumed.
New York Islanders head coach Patrick said that Sunday's morning skate will determine if defensemen Ryan Pulock and Scott Mayfield are good to go against the Dallas Stars.
The Islanders and many other teams interested in the 26-year-old, regardless of how this season has gone, must hope Pettersson's struggles have lessened his trade value.
