    Default Okposo tonight vs NJD

    He had an LBI which kept him out if Thursday's game vs TBay. Anybody know if he's playing tonight?

    Thanks.

    https://twitter.com/NYIslanders/stat...20288051191808 Looks like the lineup is the same as Thursday, when he didn't play.

    Posted about 15 min ago on Isles twitter feed:
    "#Isles lines at today’s practice: Lee-Nielsen-Bailey; Persson-Nelson-Clutterbuck; Martin-Strome-McDonald; Sundstrom-Cizikas-Halmo"
    So, not looking good.
    Very little info anywhere on what's going on. Frustrating.

    Appears to be another no-go tonight. And I still haven't found anything that talks about what's up. If anyone else does... please post. I need to make a move-
    Fm Isles twitter feed:

    "NYIslanders ‏@NYIslanders 2m
    Capuano: Nabokov in goal. Rest of lineup remains the same as Saturday’s win against New Jersey. #Isles"

    Thanks for the update Wink. Now I have space to dress St. Louis. I'm predicting one shot and -2 from him tonight.

    LOL... I don't have Marty, but I'm "lucky" to be dealing with Okposo and Datsyuk during my finals. It's like an old episode of Moonlighting:

    Will they or won't they?

    Simply amazing I haven't been able to find a single word anywhere about what's up with KO.

    I saw an almost 4 minute clip of Capuano meeting the media prior to the game yesterday (on the Isles twitter page), and there was no mention of him.
    Either the media didn't ask about him, or they didn't show that part.
    All of which leads me to think there HAS to be news out there somewhere I just haven't found.
    Why else would, say, a beat reporter not get the question on record as to what the status is of one of their top-line players?

    This late in the season, and with the team out of contention, I'm not sure of the reason for the secrecy.

    Any opinions?

    Anyone hearing anything on Okposo? Recruited by the CIA? In witness protection perhaps? Government discovered he was an alien, and has erased all documents pertaining to his existence?
    According to Twitter there is someone called Sammie Okposo. Seems to be a musician. No mention of whether Sammie will play tonight either.

    Aaaaah. The "Duke Silver" angle.
    I love it!

    Capuano: none of the injured guys will return this season. "No need to rush anyone back. The standings won't change." #Isles
