Ho-Sang was brought up to the Capitals on an emergency basis Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The Islanders have several forwards dealing with injuries -- including winger Andrew Ladd, who has suffered a back ailment -- giving Ho-Sang the opportunity to be around the big club ahead of Thursday's road game against the Stars. A highly touted prospect with great hands, Ho-Sang has picked up 36 points (10 goals, 26 assists) in 48 games with the AHL's Sound Tigers this season. He'd be a sneaky bargain play in daily leagues if the injured regulars need more time to heal.
