Reimer is 4-2-1 with a 3.43 goals against average in his career against the Islanders. Fellow Toronto goaltender Jonathan Bernier has never faced the Isles. Torontos Phil Kessel will be in the lineup for tonights contest after the star winger sat out practice on Monday with a bout of the flu. Kessel is leading Toronto this season in both goals (10) and points (19). Meanwhile, Maple Leafs forward Tyler Bozak returned to practice Monday for the first time since suffering a hamstring injury on Oct. 25. Bozak is eligible to come off the injured reserve on Thursday, but its unclear if he will be able to play in Torontos game that night against Nashville. The Islanders try to win consecutive games for only the second time this season. The Islanders last won back-to-back outings on Nov. 1 and 2 against Ottawa and Boston, respectively. New York is coming off Saturdays home shootout victory over Detroit, although that win did come at a cost as goaltender Evgeni Nabokov suffered a groin injury early in the affair. Nabokov had sat out the previous three games before returning to action on Saturday against the Red Wings. His return didnt last long, however, as the 38-year-old veteran left 4:12 into the game after facing only one shot. Nabokov was placed on injured reserve on Monday and could miss a month of action or more. Kevin Poulin, who is 2-1-0 in his last three decisions, stopped 19-of-22 shots through overtime in his relief effort on Saturday. He also turned aside Detroits Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk and Todd Bertuzzi in the shootout phase to seal the 5-4 triumph for the Isles. "He battles hard, he competes really hard," Islanders captain John Tavares said about Poulin. "Hes a confident guy and did a great job obviously in the shootout." With Nabokov on the shelf, Poulin will assume the starters role. The Islanders also recalled netminder Anders Nilsson from their American Hockey League affiliate in Bridgeport to serve in a backup role. Frans Nielsen scored the lone shootout goal on Saturday, while Tavares registered a goal and an assist for the Islanders, who once again played without winger Thomas Vanek. The Austrian forward has missed the past four games after playing in just six games with New York following a trade with Buffalo last month. Vanek, who has five goals and seven assists in 19 total games this season, will not play tonight. Saturdays win allowed New York to complete a three-game homestand with a 2-1-0 record. The club will play its next three on the road and is just 3-6-0 as the guest this season. The Isles have won three straight and four of their last six games in Toronto. New York has claimed three of four overall in this series. The Maple Leafs, however, are boasting a strong 7-2-0 mark on home ice this season and are beginning a four-game stay at the ACC tonight.

An MRI revealed that McLaren suffered a fractured right pinky finger at practice Sunday, according to coach Randy Carlyle. The team did not set an official time frame for the enforcers return. "At one point those were always four to six (weeks), but I would not say that its four to six right now," Carlyle said Monday. "Thats not the message that we had gotten back. Itll be immobilized for at least two weeks to let the healing process start." Carlyle said McLarens finger will not require a pin be inserted into it. Instead, itll have a splint. McLaren suffered the injury when he was slashed on thhe right hand during practice.dddddddddddd Carlyle mentioned Friday that the Leafs considered giving McLaren some penalty-killing duties in addition to his role as a fighter. There was potential of trying that in the pre-season after seeing McLaren kill penalties for the Worcester Sharks in the AHL. "Thats where the growth is possible for him to take the next step," Carlyle said. "Do you use him in the exhibition season killing penalties? Hes had that role before at the lower level. Is it time to experience that now, give him a little bit of an opportunity?" The 25-year-old participated in 35 games last season for Toronto and one for the San Jose Sharks. He has played just four seconds of short-handed time in his NHL career. ' ' '
