EDGE Analysis

In 14 postseason contests, Pageau has garnered three goals and 10 helpers, including two power-play points but it seems clear he is playing through an injury at this point, which could slow his offensive production. As such, fantasy players may want to look for alternative options among the Islanders' forward complement, including linemate Kyle Palmieri.

Coach Barry Trotz didn't state the nature of the injury other than calling it a tweak. The injury is not considered serious, and Pageau may have been held out of the game as a precaution because the Isles were down three goals.'Trotz also added that Pageau is expected to play in Game 3 on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Pageau played a large role in the Islanders' gaining momentum during the second period of Monday's contest. The 28-year-old center has racked up nine points, 20 shots on goal, 35 hits and a plus-6 rating through eight playoff contests. Just two of his nine points have come with the man advantage, but his usage on the top power-play unit should keep him involved on offense.

Pageau collected two assists and two shots Wednesday in a 5-3 victory over the Penguins in Game 6. He also had three hits and two blocks.

EDGE Analysis

Pageau set up a Kyle Palmieri goal in the first period that made it a 2-2 game, then he added his second helper midway through the second on Ryan Pulock's eventual game-winner. Pageau notched four assists over the final three games of the series and totaled seven points (one goal, six assists) overall.

Pageau pulled the Islanders even at 2-2 just 3:33 into the final period, going top shelf on Pittsburgh netminder Tristan Jarry. Pageau also picked up assists on both of Kyle Palmieri's goals, including the overtime winner. It all added up to a three-point matinee for the veteran center, who had brought a seven-game point drought into the postseason.

Pageau (undisclosed) is good to go for Tuesday's game against Buffalo, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pageau only missed a single game with the undisclosed injury, so it evidently wasn't that serious. He'll look to build upon the 28 points in 50 games he's amassed this season.

Pageau (undisclosed) didn't play in the Islanders' 4-2 loss to the Sabres on Monday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Islanders didn't announce the exact nature of the injury, but Pageau did miss a good chunk of the third period Saturday after a hard hit. However, the Islanders have clinched a playoff spot, so there is no reason for the team to rush him back. Pageau will next have a chance to play Tuesday, as the Islanders and Sabres will play each other once again.
