I'm excited to get another look Calvin De Haan, the rookie defenseman for the Islanders -- the kid is playing like a 24-year old already.

Ryan Potulny finally gets a crack at some game minutes, and at center to boot. If the guy can win a faceoff, he should get a job. If anyone can win a faceoff, they should get a job. Anyone. If the guy wearing the Messier jersey in the 27th row can do it, sign him. Lubomir Visnovsky is back from injury - hopefully he moves well and avoids contact.
Open comment thread for the game - have at it.
