Andy Sutton (NYI - Defense)
News: Teams have inquired about Sutton's availability, according to Islanders Point Blank. [+]
Impact: Sutton can provide some decent physical defense while chipping in a few points. However, his injury history (he has just one season of 70-plus games for his career) will keep teams from overpaying. He will also be an unrestricted free agent come July 1. ( RotoWire - Mon. Feb 8, 2010) |

Matt Martin (NYI)
News: Martin has been called up from Bridgeport, the Islanders' web site confirms. [+]
Impact: Martin does not project to be a top-notch scorer, but his energy and physical play could make him a fan favorite in the future. For now, he's probably just going to play out the Islanders' remaining four games before the Olympic break. ( RotoWire - Mon. Feb 8, 2010) |

Jesse Joensuu (NYI)
News: Joensuu has been called up from Bridgeport, the Islanders web site reports. [+]
Impact: The Islanders hope that JJ will be an effective offensive presence for the club in the future. With the team mired in a losing streak that now stands at seven games, it looks like they want to grab another peek at him at the NHL level. He scored one goal in a seven-game stint with the Isles back in December. ( RotoWire - Mon. Feb 8, 2010) | |

Kari Lehtonen (ATL)
News: Although Lehtonen (back) was recalled from his conditioning assignment in the AHL, the Thrahsers have not made any announcements on when they plan to give the veteran goalie his first start since October, according to Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. [+]
Impact: By no means is Lehtonen going to make or break the season for Atlanta, or for your fantasy team for that matter. It's hard to envision Atlanta carrying three goalies for too long, so keep an eye out to see what the Thrashers decide to do with Lehtonen, Johan Hedberg and Ondrej Pavelec. ( RotoWire - Mon.

News: Bergfors scored the go-ahead goal with 4:26 left in a 4-2 win over Florida on Saturday. [+]
Impact: Bergfors, playing his second game for the Thrashers after joining the team in a trade that sent superstar Ilya Kovalchuk to New Jersey, scored on a 15-foot blast that went between goalie Tomas Vokoun's legs. Bergfors had 14 goals this season. "It had been a month since I scored a goal," he said. "It was great. It means a lot." ( STATS - Sun. Feb 7, 2010) |
News: Kubina had two assists in a 4-2 win over Florida on Saturday. [+]
Impact: Kubina had produced no points in three games since he had two in a win over the Flyers on Jan. 28. ( STATS - Sun. Feb 7, 2010) | |
