Newsday: Greg Logan's article is on Chris Campoli taking Mark Streit's role for a game with head coach Scott Gordon's comments.
Nate Thompson was placed on IR, Sean Bergenheim was taken off IR.
NYI Fan Central Comments:
Hate to think Bergenheim sat for Thompson, let's hope that's coincidence.
Yes, took Friday Newsday Insider off here, that's why there is a feeder. Only notable was Scott Gordon's comments on Danis looking more like a number one goaltender than MacDonald earlier in terms of numbers which was kind of a curious comment.
Bottom line nothing has been decided for next year with either goaltender.

UPI: Reports Wade Dubielewicz lost 4-1 in his Columbus debut against Pittsburgh.
NYI Fan Central Comments:
Hard to believe how long it's been since he signed here, he would have played a good five games by now here.
Of course he (or anyone) would have been hard pressed to match Danis play in goal.
One thing for sure is the 2008-09 New York Islanders have had playoff caliber goaltending this season.
