Tony DeAngelo of the New York Islanders left the game against the Blackhawks after 12:46 of the first period due to a lower-body injury sustained while back-checking. Coach Patrick Roy stated that DeAngelo will be reevaluated on Wednesday. His absence could lead to Isaiah George stepping in as the seventh defenseman, especially with Ryan Pulock also sidelined due to injury. DeAngelo’s injury occurred while defending a 2-on-0 rush, which resulted in a goal by Nick Lardis.
