The New York Islanders are set to take on one of the worst teams in the league as they look to move back into first place in the Metropolitan. They’ll take on the Detroit Red Wings who come in with just 58 points on the season and a -53 goal differential. A win would put the Islanders back into a first place tie with the Washington Capitals.
One of the Thomas Greiss or Robin Lehner will play tonight. The starter has yet to be announced. Greiss has been a low key Vezina candidate while Lehner might be just a step behind.
