Jack Capuano suggested there could be changes in tonight’s Islanders lineup for Game 4 and judging by who stayed on for extra work at this morning’s optional skate, that would appear to be the case.
Ryan Pulock pronounced himself ready to return from an upper-body injury that has sidelined him since late in Game 4 of the opening round series against the Panthers. Marek Zidlicky, who entered the lineup when Pulock exited, stayed on for some extra conditioning work, an indication that Pulock could be ready to return.
“We’ll see what happens tonight, but it feels good,” Pulock said.
