2010-11 Islanders Quiz
I had some spare time and decided to make this quiz. How many of the 42 players who played at least one game for the Islanders this past season can you name?

Knee Injuries Not New for Poulin
I came across this article from before the Islanders signed Poulin, which mentions him suffering multiple knee injuries during one of his seasons while in juniors. Apparently he dislocated his left kneecap while warming up (sound familiar) kicking a soccer ball, and then injured his right knee in his fourth game back from the first injury.
Let's all hope this doesn't become a recurring issue.
Okposo skates in full gear
No official time frame for his return (according to Capuano), but it's good to see Okposo is making progress.
Rookie Game Roster/Numbers
I noticed in the comments from tonight's rookie game thread that there some questions about the roster and who was wearing what number. At the game, they handed out sheets with the rosters (including numbers) for both teams, so I figured I'd share the Islanders roster for anyone who's interested/to help identify players during tomorrow's game:
Stream of Rookie Games (vs Bruins)
I was checking out the information on the Bruins website about this week's rookie games, and it appears that they'll be streaming both games:
"bostonbruinsTV will stream both games live on bostonbruins.com and bostonbruinstv.com."

Calvin de Haan Signed
Good to hear.
Edit from Dom: To answer a FAQ, per the CBA he'll still be in either juniors or the NHL next year (not AHL), but if he makes or is called up to the Isles for 10 games, this contract kicks in. For more lovely CBA-ese, you can download the full doc here.
