both sides of the ice. For the New York Islanders I will pick Matthew Barzal

Hughes into the lineup yesterday, I will pick him and his brother Luke Hughes.
Jack has been out for about 4 weeks with a finger issue that he sustained
during the thanksgiving holiday. I am really looking forward to see which team
will come out on top tonight and which style of play will ultimately earn their
team a big two points in the Metropolitan division standings. I will be working

Avalanche game tonight from UBS Arena in Elmont, NY. Coming into this evening’s

Colorado Avalanche, it is the first time back at UBS Arena for Brock Nelson
since the New York Islanders traded Brock to Colorado during last year’s NHL
trade deadline. Nelson who was a New York Islander for the first 10 ½ years of
