Evgeni Nabokov Claimed By New York Islanders
The New York Islanders goaltender carousel keeps on spinning, and after trading Dwayne Roloson and waiting through more injury woes with long-time starter/injured reserve mainstay Rick DiPietro, they're looking to take a chance on veteran Evgeni Nabokov.

Just after the 12 p.m. deadline for teams to put in claims, we learned that the Islanders had claimed Nabokov off waivers from the Detroit Red Wings. Other teams may have put in a claim as well, but the Islanders had priority over every NHL team other than New Jersey and Edmonton due to their rank in the NHL's standings.

I think this is the first time they've been shut out in back to back games in about 10 years.....

they just aren't a good team right now. But the kids that have been playing inthe minors forever are getting a lot of good ice time.
