Evgeni Nabokov will be the Islanders' starting goaltender in Friday's game against Anaheim. Nabokov has been great lately, winning three straight contests and posting a save percentage of .925 or higher in each game. Nabokov will continue to get the vast majority of the Islanders starts until Al Montoya or, to a lesser extent, Rick DiPietro are ready to return from their respective injuries.
