Maybe it's the flu or something he ate or due to watching the Mets vomit up routine plays all weekend, but Islanders captain John Tavares remains ill, according to a couple of ominous Jack Capuano quotes from practice.
Capuano: Tavares still very sick, getting checked out again today. "I don't expect him here for a little bit."

Capuano said Tavares "is not doing well" and he doesn't expect him "for a little bit." #Isles

In other words, Tavares could be out for tomorrow night's rematch against the Devils.
