The New York Islanders got injury updates on Noah Dobson, Kyle Palmieri, and Hudson Fasching. The news on Dobson is mixed and we'll discuss the good and the bad plus what this means for the Isles in the short term on today's show.

Plus, does the injury to Dobson change the way Lou Lamoriello should approach the NHL Trade Deadline? We discuss the options and why it does matter.

And we preview both of this weekend's important division games, Friday against the Philadelphia Flyers and Saturday against the Carolina Hurricanes.

All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
