Isles Take On Tampa Bay, DP Starts, Bailey Out

Tonight the Isles will faceoff against the 4-1-0 Lightning, starting at 7 pm. Rick DiPietro gets the nod in goal tonight, maybe he'll be debuting his new pink pads for breast cancer. The 3-1-2 Isles have to get the puck in the offensive zone tonight, and they can't waist time in their own zone.

Just a quick note, Burno Gervais has been practicing on offense, so that would be kinda cool to see him play forward for a few games. But according to Chris Botta, Gervais is one of the scratches tonight along with Josh Bailey (hip) and Jack Hillen. Bailey is a big loss for the Isles as he's been putting up some points in these 6 games played, but is expected to return vs the Panthers tomorrow night.

The game can be found on MSG Plus 2 tonight, and tomorrow night. Prepare for the crappy TV screen, but hey, atleast you get to watch your Isles!
