The line-ups haven't been posted yet. In fact, not a whole lot has been posted on the Islanders website since the Barclays practice on Thursday. I think there was one article about Brock Nelson and that's been it. Kinda disappointing...
Anyway, just keep an eye on the official website or Islanders Point Blank over the next day or so and I'm sure they'll post them.
Is that the Calgary game or the game in Regina? Or both?The game is gonna be streamed on NYI.com {Calgary airs their games for the fans so we're stealing their feed}.
Tomorrow night's Islanders vs. Flames split-squad game in Calgary will be streamed LIVE on www.NewYorkIslanders.com courtesy of Flames TV.
An audio feed of the Islanders vs. Flames split-squad game in Regina, Saskatchewan will also be available.
Both games are set to begin at 9 PM Eastern Time. Links to the broadcasts will be available tomorrow.
Staple already tweeted who was going to Regina:
Tavares, Strome, Martin, Cizikas, Nelson, Moulson, Bouchard, Lee, Boulton, McDonald, Sundstrom, Gallant; Hamonic, Hickey, Visnovsky, Strait, Finley, Mayfield, Ness; Nabby, Reiter.
No idea on the lines yet.
great thanks
NP. I do think it's interesting that Hammer is going to Regina with Strait instead of MacDonald. Doesn't make sense to not have Hamonic and MacDonald playing preseason games together unless there is a real possibility of them being split up.
Maybe I'm reading too much into it though.

So far, standouts in camp include Matt Donovan, Calvin Dehaan, Ryan Strome, Brock Nelson and Kenny Reiter.

It has the players traveling to Regina and Calgary.

My guess on the lines:
Moulson - Tavares - Bouchard
Lee - Nelson - Strome
Martin - Cizikas - McDonald
Gallant - Sundstrom - Boulton
Strait - Hamonic
Hickey - Viz
Finley - Ness/Mayfield
What's this with the split games?Why are they playing at the same time? I know other teams are doing it and I like the two games with two squads and more players getting their chance but what about the coaching staff? Plus as a fan you can't watch both games.
apparently they arent doing it for the fans. especially sending tavares, strome, nabby, hamonic etc to the un-televised regina game.

I thought I read that both games would be steamed through the Islanders website?Both games are "untelevised", it's just that the Flames are streaming the Calgary game because it's at the home arena.
The Isles probably sent their better players to Regina because the organization has had a good relationship with the people of Saskatchewan since they held camp there in 2009. They've likely gained some fans up there and want to continue to cultivate a fanbase.
