Pre Game: Penguins @ Islanders

Tonight, Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins pay a visit to the old barn in Hempstead to take on John Tavares and our struggling Islanders.  This is the Penguins first visit to the Coliseum since the two teams squared off in their playoff series this past May.

The goalie match up tonight features Marc-Andre Fleury for the Penguins and Anders Nilsson making his second consecutive start for the Islanders.

Penguins forward lines:

Kunitz-Crosby-Dupuis

Jokinen-Malkin-Neal

Ebbet-Sutter-Conner

Sill-Vitale-Adams

The Islanders lineup tonight will be the same as it was for Saturdays overtime loss Washington.  That means that Radek Martinek, Eric Boulton, and Brock Nelson will serve as the teams healthy scratches tonight.
