News: Getting a rare start on Tuesday, Biron stopped 24 of 27 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over Nashville. [+]
Impact: Biron has no fantasy value and it's quite clear that GM Garth Snow is attempting to raise his trade value before the upcoming deadline. ( RotoWire - Tue. Feb 9, 2010) |

Matt Martin (NYI)
News: Martin made his NHL debut on Tuesday against Nashville and recorded a pair of assists. [+]
Impact: Martin played 14:41 in the contest. Despite the solid debut, he isn't one of the Islanders' better prospects and he can be safely ignored in fantasy leagues for the moment. ( RotoWire - Tue. Feb 9, 2010) |

Doug Weight (NYI - Center)
News: Weight (shoulder) is not expected to play against the Predators Tuesday, Islanders Point Blank reports. [+]
Impact: Coach Scott Gordon confirmed Weight is not completely healthy, so it looks like he'll sit the captain at least one game. With just four games remaining before the Olympic break, there is a chance that Gordon sits the captain all four games so as to give him some additional time to heal. The New York Post, however, quotes Gordon as saying "he's not gonna heal to the extent that time off is going to accomplish anything." ( RotoWire - Tue. Feb 9, 2010) | |

Impact: Emery has missed the last three games and underwent an MRI on Monday on his sore left hip. General manager Paul Holmgren said the results were not available and that he wouldn't rule out the possibility of surgery for Emery. This would be a devastating blow to Emery owners, as he seemed to be hot with five wins in seven starts before the injury. ( RotoWire - Tue. Feb 9, 2010) |

News: Leighton turned aside 28 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over New Jersey. [+]
Impact: There were some rumblings that Ray Emery was going to get the nod, but Razor was battling tightness in his hip. Leighton played solidly after falling behind 2-0, making several saves to aid the Flyers' comeback effort. ( RotoWire - Mon. Feb 8, 2010) | |
