Greiss made 32 saves in a 3-1 win over the Panthers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
He snapped a two-game losing streak. Greiss finally got a little goal support and he did the rest. The Isles rely on a rotation in the blue paint, so Greiss won't deliver the win totals that other elite netminders do. But his production in other categories is more than enough -- he entered the game with a 2.24 GAA and .930 save percentage.

Greiss is in line to start between the pipes in Thursday's road game versus the Panthers, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss has been rock solid recently, maintaining an admirable .921 save percentage through his last two starts, but he's posted a disappointing 0-2-0 record over that span due to insufficient goal support. The 33-year-old German will try to get back in the win column in a road matchup with a Florida team that's averaging 3.56 scores per game at home this campaign, sixth in the NHL.

Greiss surrendered three goals on 37 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss didn't have a bad game, but two penalties by the Islanders' lone goal-scorer, Mathew Barzal, led to the netminder allowing a pair of power-play tallies. Greiss has gone 3-3-0 with 15 goals allowed over his last six games. He dropped to 10-4-0 with a 2.24 GAA and a .930 save percentage. If coach Barry Trotz's goalie rotation holds true in the upcoming week, Greiss would play Thursday on the road versus the Panthers.

Greiss will be in goal for Saturday's road game in Dallas.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss is coming off a tough result in his last start, a 4-2 loss to the Canadiens that saw the German-born goaltender concede three goals on 39 shots. Dallas won its last game but had lost four straight prior to that by a combined score of 14-4. In 10 career appearances, Greiss holds a record of 5-2-0 against the Stars.

Greiss stopped 36 of 39 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Canadiens on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss' night turned sour once he allowed Phillip Danault to score with less than a second remaining in the first period. Montreal would score the next two goals to take a 3-0 lead, meanwhile, the Isles would only solve Carey Price -- rocking an .840 save percentage in his last six games played -- twice. The loss moves Greiss' season record to 10-3-0 and despite head coach Barry Trotz's decision to alternate between goalies, Greiss holds plenty of value in all formats and is a safe bet each and every time he's tabbed for starter's duties.

Greiss will guard the cage during Tuesday's road clash with the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss was fanastic in the month of November, posting a 6-1-0 record while maintaining an impressive 2.04 GAA and .932 save percentage through seven appearances. The 33-year-old German will try to start December off on a high note by picking up his 11th win of the season in a favorable road matchup with a free-falling Montreal team that's lost eight straight games.

Coach Barry Trotz said Greiss is "fine" after leaving Saturday's win over the Blue Jackets with an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss will be on the bench for Monday's matchup against the Red Wings since it's Semyon Varlamov's turn to start. Trotz plans to start Greiss on Tuesday against Montreal, and there should be an official confirmation ahead of the contest.

Greiss left the game Saturday because he was feeling dizzy, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Barry Trotz also stated that Greiss might've been sick. Either way, this is good news as Greiss is expected to accompany the team on its two-game road trip to Detroit and Montreal on Monday and Tuesday. Assuming Greiss gets past this illness he is still expected to start one of these games at this point in time.

Greiss (undisclosed) left Saturday's game versus Columbus, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. Semyon Varlamov took over crease duties for New York.
EDGE Analysis
No word on why Greiss was forced to exit Saturday's game, but it appeared as though the netminder was feeling ill on the bench. He'll hope to feel better in time to start one of New York's next two games. The Islanders play back-to-back games early next week, starting with Detroit on Monday before taking on the Canadiens in Montreal on Tuesday.

Greiss will defend the blue paint during Saturday's home matchup with Columbus, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Greiss was a little shaky in his last start Monday against Anaheim, allowing three goals on 23 shots en route to a 3-0 road loss. The 33-year-old German will try to bounce back in a favorable home matchup with a Blue Jackets club that's 3-4-3 on the road this year.
