Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Will return to the lineup
Marek Zidlicky will draw back into the lineup Friday in Florida, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.Zidlicky will replace the injured Ryan Pulock (upper body) who will be out 1-2 weeks. What Zidlicky lacks in size he can make up for in speed. His play this season has been inconsistent at best but at this point in the playoffs coach Jack Capuano has decided to go with the experience in Zidlicky rather than the youth of Adam Pelech.

Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Will be back in lineup Saturday
Marek Zidlicky (upper body) will return to the lineup Saturday night against the Penguins, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.Zidlicky has missed the past 13 games with the upper-body ailment. At 39 years old, Zidlicky is no spring chicken, and he's not nearly as mobile as he used to be. Still, he could be a decent spot play in deep leagues since he does average close to two minutes per game on the man advantage and knows the game well.

Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Will not play Saturday
Marek Zidlicky (upper body) will be "out a little while" according to coach Jack Capuano, which rules him out for Saturday's tilt with Boston, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.Without a definitive timeline to return, it is unclear when Zidlicky will be ready to return. The New York Islanders play three games in the next four days, meaning the blueliner could be out at least another week. Having registered 15 points in 49 contests this season, the veteran does offer mid-range fantasy value, but has gone without a point in his last five matchups.

Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Out again Wednesday
Marek Zidlicky (upper body) won't play Wednesday against the Maple Leafs, Newsday's Arthur Staple reports.Zidlicky has been a solid defender for the New York Islanders this season, posting a plus-4 rating over 49 games, but shouldn't be owned in the vast majority of fantasy leagues, as he's tallied just 15 points (four goals, 11 assists) and 43 shots on goal over that span. The 39-year-old blueliner will hope to return to action Saturday against the Bruins.

Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Out against Penguins
Marek Zidlicky will miss Tuesday's matchup with the Penguins with an upper-body injury.Zidlicky has been in and out of the lineup all season due to injuries and depth on the New York Islanders blue line. Additionally, the veteran's inability to score with consistency, he's tallied a paltry two points in his last 10 outings, has led to coach Jack Capuano searching for different combinations at defense. It remains unclear if the 39-year-old will be cleared for action Wednesday when the team travels to Toronto.

Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Will draw into lineup Tuesday
Marek Zidlicky will be in the lineup Tuesday night, opposing the Maple Leafs on the road, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.Zidlicky reportedly will replace Brian Strait against the Buds. Interestingly, the 53 points that Zidlicky put up in his rookie campaign with the Predators has proven to be his best mark through 11 years of service time. He can still get it done offensively as a bottom-pairing defenseman, but Zidlicky is 38 years old and the New York Islanders don't need him to be a 20-plus minute player like he was with the Devils in 2014-15.

Islanders' Marek Zidlicky: Scores twice against former team
Marek Zidlicky potted a pair of goals in Sunday's win over the Devils.Zidlicky had been held off the scoresheet in four straight coming in, and hadn't found the back of the net since the first game of the season, but continued to find success against his former club as he now has four points against the Devils in three games this year. The blueliner has just 10 points on the year though, and likely won't contribute much in standard formats.
