Josh Bailey LW, New York Islanders: The former overall ninth pick in 2008 has yet to pan out offensively, but he has been clicking on the top line alongside John Tavares with seven points over the last five games. If he can indeed stick there, he should easily surpass his career-high of 38 points and flirt with the 50-point mark. The long-term injury to Kyle Okposo should hinder the top unit's overall offensive production, but Bailey is defintely starteable if he becomes JT's main "partner in crime" over the next 5-8 weeks. Mikhail Grabovski, New York Islanders: Ok, so "Grabo" hasn't exactly gone off in his first year on Long Island but he will get first crack at replacing Okposo on the top line. We doubt he can remain consistent over the long haul, but he can certainly be a solid short-term option if he clicks with JT. It's all about opportunity in fantasy, so he deserves a strong look over the next week while the Isles begin their life without Okposo. Andre Burakovsky RW, Washington: Heading into the All-Star Break, the 19-year old posted a two-game point streak while playing on the top line with Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom. He is tied for sixth amongst rookies with 18 points but he could certainly double that production if he continues to get time with the top guns. We still expect many "ups and downs" for the youngster, but his lomg-term upside is quite substantial. His value is one-year leagues should be strictly viewd as short-term, but he is worth watching. Mark Stone RW, Ottawa: Speaking of under the radar, Ottawa's top-liner will be resuming quite possibly the NHL's quietest seven-game point streak as the games get started this week. The 22-year old has scored at every level and now has begun to showcase his talents for a Senator team desperately in need of a go-to sniper (No disrespect to Bobby Ryan, but he hasn't been consistent enough). It's looking like Stone and Mike Hoffman could have plenty of fantasy value for years to come as they should be primary offensive contributors moving forward. Anton Forsberg G, Columbus: While everybody is running out to pick up Curtis McElhinney as the long-term replacement for the injured Sergei Bobrovsky, we think you look elsewhere. 22-year old Anton Forsberg has been recalled from the AHL, where he has put up great numbers since his North Anerican debut late last season (4-2-0, 1.69 GAA, .940 SP), He should get a legit shot to carry the Columbus workload in the crease over the next month or so, ...

Grabovski is on the ice for the Islanders morning skate, so it looks like he will be back in the lineup on Saturday night. He said that if everything goes well in the A.M skate that he would be in the lineup---so far so good. We will get confirmation after the skate.

Grabovski missed the last three games with a concussion he suffered on October 16th vs. the Sharks. He will be back in the lineup tonight vs. Dallas on the second line with Frans Nielsen and Nikolay Kulemin. Grabo had two goals and one assist in four games this season.

Grabovski skated on the Islanders second line at practice this morning and said he felt good after the skate. He will participate in the morning skate on Saturday and if he feels good, he will be in the lineup. Grabo has missed three games, but will skate on a line with Frans Nielsen and Cory Conacher tomorrow if he is available.

Grabovski skated on his own Tuesday, but has joined his teammates this morning. This is a positive sign that Grabo is not far from a return. He is doubtful for Thursday's game vs. the Bruins, but could be back on Saturday vs. Dallas.

Grabovski's movement to IR means that he is ineligible to play on Thursday, but could return on Saturday. It was likely a roster move to allow Lubomir Visnovsky to be activated from IR and play tomorrow.

Grabovski is reportedly feeling much better after waking up with concussion-like symptoms last Friday. He won't play vs. the Maple Leafs tonight, but could play Thursday against the Bruins. Monitor his status throughout the week.

Grabovski was crunched by a much bigger John Scott on Thursday night, but the Isles said he didn't suffer a concussion after he passed the tests on Thursday night. He is out indefinitely and will not be evaluated until early next week.

Scott caught an unaware Grabovski with a clean hit in the Sharks' defensive zone. Early reports are the Grabo did not suffer a concussion on the play, which is a positive sign that he shouldn't miss a lengthy period of time. The Isles are considering it an upper-body injury and he will be evaluated this afternoon, after which an update should become available.

Grabovski will not travel with the team to Pittsburgh for Saturday's game and he is out indefinitely after being rocked by John Scott on Thursday. The Isles said that Grabovski did not suffer a concussion, which is a positive, but he obviously is too sore to go. Expect Anders Lee to be recalled from Bridgeport (AHL).
