CHICAGO – Fond feelings for former goalie Robin Lehner still abound among the Islanders. Which is why his ex-teammates are rooting for him to get the start for the Blackhawks on Friday night at United Center.
“I’m going to be excited to play against him,” Mathew Barzal said. “Hopefully, we do get him. He’s an amazing goaltender. When he was here, he was kind of an older brother to me. I’m definitely hoping to score on him, that’s for sure.
