The New York Islanders are currently in the middle of a three-game California road trip. They’re currently in San Jose waiting for their date against the San Jose Sharks.
With three days between a game against the Anaheim Ducks, a game they lost 3-2 in OT, they have plenty of time to practice.
But today, as Islanders beat writer Arthur Staple put out his regular Twitter updates with the New York Islanders lines a notable name was missing from the forward lines. Jordan Eberle’s name was nowhere on the list.

There was no room for speculation as Staple quickly followed that up an hour later with another tweet where he indicated that Eberle had taken a hard hit in practice and was out for the time being.
