Poulin is now 1-4-0 with a .908 save percentage and 2.62 GAA this season. He had a nice couple games lately, but the pendulum might swing back to Evgeni Nabokov as the Islanders continue to struggle.

Kevin Poulin sticked aside 26 shots in the Islanders 3-1 win over the Bruins on Saturday night.
The Islanders certainly carried over some momentum from their come-from-behind shootout win against the Senators a night earlier. Poulin was excellent between the pipes in his best start (of three) in the young season. Beyond being a bit off his game this season, Evgeni Nabokov is 38 years old, so it would behoove Poulin to take advantage of his opportunities because he might be able to steal some starts.

Kevin Poulin gave up four goals on 31 shots Saturday night in the Islanders' 5-2 loss to Philadelphia.
It wasn't a good outing for the back-up netminder, who needs to be counted on because Evgeni Nabokov isn't exactly a spring chicken. Poulin has now given up seven goals in his two starts this season. The Isles have won twice in their last eight games.

Goaltender Kevin Poulin likely will get a rare start in net for the New York Islanders when they face the Philadelphia Flyers tonight.
Poulin has played in only one game this season. Evgeni Nabokov has started nine of the Isles' 10 games and, after a 4-3 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins Friday night, appears to be in need of a rest.

Kevin Poulin has only started in one of the Islanders' nine games, but he might get his next start this weekend.
The Islanders are scheduled to play on Friday and Saturday, but Islanders coach Jack Capuano hasn't ruled out the possibility of using Evgeni Nabokov in both contests. Poulin turned aside 25 of 28 shots in his first start of the 2013-14 campaign.

Kevin Poulin lost in his first start of the 2013-14 season for the New York Islanders, as the Chicago Blackhawks won 3-2 on Friday.
Poulin allowed three goals on 28 shots. The 23-year-old is now 7-10-1 with a .911 save percentage and 2.77 GAA in 22 career NHL games spread over four seasons. Evgeni Nabokov owners shouldn't worry about his status as the Isles' workhorse.
