The Islanders have reassigned Chris Gibson to Bridgeport (AHL).
Lehner (upper-body) returned to practice on Wednesday.
Lehner missed the last three games with an upper-body injury that he suffered last Tuesday, but was back on the ice for practice on Wednesday. Thomas Greiss, who shutout the Blue Jackets on Monday, will likely start Thursday vs. Montreal but Lehner could be back for this weekend’s back-to-back (Sat. @ DET / Sun. @ MIN).
Goalie Start
Greiss will start Monday vs. the Blue Jackets.
Greiss was yanked after allowing five goals on 15 shots in the Islanders 5-2 loss to the Flyers on Saturday. It was a rough outing for Greiss, but with Robin Lehner still out, he will start again on Monday. Greiss is 2-2-0 with a 2.93 GAA and .895 SV% in March and 2-0-0 with a 1.00 GAA, .967 SV% and one shutout vs. the Blue Jackets this season.
Line Change
Hickey will draw into the Islanders lineup on Monday.
Hickey has been scratched for the last six games but will suit up on Monday with Johnny Boychuk out with a concussion. Hickey has not played a hockey recently, playing in just one NHL game and two AHL games since December 17th .
Clutterbuck (upper-body) will likely play Monday vs. the Blue Jackets.
Clutterbuck has missed the last three games with an upper-body injury that he suffered vs. Philadelphia on March 3rd. He will replace Michael Dal Colle in the lineup and skate in his usual spot on the fourth line.
Boychuck (concussion) will not play on Monday.
Boychuk was forced to leave Saturday’s game against the Flyers with a concussion he suffered on a hit from Jakub Voracek. The Flyers winger was suspended two games for the hit but it will cost Boychuk at least one game as well. Thomas Hickey will play in Boychuk’s place.
Goalie Start
Greiss led the Islanders onto the ice for warmups.
Greiss allowed two goals on 37 shots in the Islanders win in Ottawa on Thursday. With Robin Lehner still out, Greiss will start for the second straight game. The 33-year-old netminder has gone 10-6-2 with a 2.35 GAA, .920 SV% and two shutouts on home-ice this season and faces a Philly team that is 4-1-1 in their last six while averaging 4.17 goals for per game.

Goalie Start
Greiss will start Thursday in Ottawa.
Lehner is day-to-day with an upper-body injury.
The Islanders would not confirm whether or not Lehner has a concussion and only called him “day-to-day” with an “upper-body injury.” Thomas Greiss is expected to start with Chris Gibson as his backup on Thursday.
The Islanders have recalled Christopher Gibson from Bridgeport (AHL).
Gibson has gone 18-9-1 with a 2.89 GAA and .900 SV% in 33 games with Bridgeport this season. Gibson is expected to serve as Thomas Greiss’ backup on Thursday with Robin Lehner getting hurt late in Tuesday’s game after a collision with Brady Tkachuk.
Lehner left Tuesday’s game and did not return.
Lehner was forced to leave Tuesday’s game against the Senators following a collision with Brady Tkachuk and did not return. The Islanders called Christopher Gibson from Bridgeport (AHL) on Wednesday morning, which suggests that Lehner will not travel to Ottawa for Thursday’s game. Look for Thomas Greiss to start tomorrow.
Goalie Start
Lehner will start Tuesday vs. the Senators.
Lehner was pulled after allowing three goals on 13 shots in the Islanders 4-1 loss to the Flyers on Sunday. Despite a rough outing, Lehner will face the team that drafted him on Tuesday. He is a must-start against a Senators team that has torn their team apart—they have lost seven of their last eight while being outscored 35-to-16.
The Islanders have recalled Josh Ho-Sang from Bridgeport (AHL) under emergency conditions.
The Islanders have a couple of forwards that are battling illness, so Ho-Sang figures to draw right into the lineup on Tuesday. The 23-year-old has just one goal and one assist in 10 games with the Islanders but has 36 points (6G / 30A) in 44 AHL games.
