Evgeni Nabokov was beaten for three goals on 24 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Penguins. We can't help but think this was one of the few nights where the Penguins streak could have been stopped, as the Isles held a decided advantage in shots. Unfortunately, it wasn't the best of night for Nabokov and Pittsburgh's streak rolls on.

It looks like Evgeni Nabokov will get the start Tuesday night. Nabokov has gotten a ton of starts this season, starting 24 of the Islanders' 28 games. However, his peripheral numbers (2.89 GAA and .902 save percentage) make him a risky option for most fantasy owners.

Evgeni Nabokov allowed five goals on 17 shots before he was removed from Sunday's 6-1 loss to the Penguins. Nabokov played two full periods before he was mercifully lifted in favor of Kevin Poulin for the third frame. The Islanders were outplayed in every aspect of the game in this contest and Nabokov had little chance to overcome that.

Evgeni Nabokov will be between the pipes Sunday on the road against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Nabokov hasn't dropped a game in regulation in his past five appearances and is 11-7-3 on the season. He should however be on your bench today against a strong Pittsburgh team, especially if you play in a league with loss as a scoring category.
