Islanders' Andy Greene: Not sure about future
Greene hasn't made a decision about returning to the NHL next season, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Greene did say Saturday that if he does return next season, he would probably only play for the Islanders. This assumes the Islanders would be open to having Greene return to the team. Greene has only three goals, 15 points, and a rating of minus-4 over his last two seasons with the Islanders.

Green (undisclosed) will not play Thursday against the Blue Jackets, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Game-time decision
Greene (undisclosed) will be a game-time call for Thursday's clash with Columbus, Stefen Rosner of NYI Hockey Now reports.
Greene's status likely won't be confirmed until the Islanders take the ice for pregame warmups. Fantasy managers shouldn't need to monitor the 39-year-old vet's availability, as he's only picked up nine points through 54 contests this campaign.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Back at it
Greene (undisclosed) will return to the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Ottawa.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Unavailable Sunday
Greene (maintenance) will not play Sunday against Philadelphia and is day-to-day.
The 39-year-old defenseman could be traded ahead of Monday's trade deadline, but the official team announcement for now is that he's simply taking a maintenance day. Greene has nine points and 68 blocked shots in 49 games this season.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Scoreless in four straight
Greene has failed to register a point and has a minus-2 rating over his last four games.
Greene had been a healthy scratch for six straight games, but Zdeno Chara's upper-body injury forced the Islanders to place Greene back in the lineup. The veteran defenseman's value to the Islanders at this point in the season isn't likely to be for how he plays for the team, but rather in any possible assets he might bring back in a trade before the March 21 deadline.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Grabs apple in loss
Greene logged an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Avalanche.
Greene set up a Kyle Palmieri go-ahead goal in the second period. With a goal and an assist in his last two games, Greene has been productive since returning from a six-game stint as a healthy scratch. The 39-year-old is up to eight points, 70 blocked shots, 27 shots on net and a minus-5 rating in 40 contests. While he's listed on the top pairing with Noah Dobson -- in place of an injured Zdeno Chara (upper body) -- Greene's ice time (17:32 per game this season) is more aligned with a third-pairing role.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Rejoins lineup, scores goal
Greene scored a goal on two shots and blocked three shots in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Ducks.
With Zdeno Chara (upper body) out of action Sunday, Greene ended his six-game run as a healthy scratch. It worked out well, as Greene was solid defensively and also tallied the Islanders' third goal. The 39-year-old has just seven points to go with 67 blocked shots, 26 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 39 contests this season. Greene will probably stay in the lineup as long as Chara is sidelined, but neither of those two defensemen are productive enough at this point in their careers to make an impact in fantasy.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Healthy scratch once again
Greene will be a healthy scratch for his sixth straight game Saturday when the Islanders take on the Kings, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
Coach Barry Trotz seems to have decided that he is better off with the offense of Sebastian Aho than he is with the defense of Greene as the Isles have struggled to score goals. Trotz can always change his mind, and maybe he will when the Islanders take on the Ducks on Sunday, but Greene rides the pine for now. Prospect Robin Salo is also an option to dress on the blue line over Greene.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Scoreless in 11 straight
Greene hasn't registered a point in 11 straight games.
Greene only has one goal and five assists in 38 games this season. Greene isn't on the team for offense, as his six points this season already eclipse the five he had last year in 55 games. Greene is a bottom-pairing defender that has been used to help bring along younger defensemen like Noah Dobson and Robin Salo. Some may argue that the Islanders would benefit more by letting Salo play over Greene, but coach Barry Trotz seems to prefer experience over youth.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Scoreless in six straight
Greene hasn't registered a point and has a rating of minus-4 in his last six games.
The lack of offensive production is not a surprise, as Greene is not expected to help offensively, but the team needs him to play better in the defensive zone. The Islanders will also have a decision to make once Ryan Pulock (lower body) comes off injured reserve. Someone will have to sit for Pulock, and that player may not be rookie Robin Salo given his status as the team's best puck-moving blueliner.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Manages assist in win
Greene logged an assist and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-1 win over the Flyers.
Greene helped out on Brock Nelson's opening tally in the second period. The 39-year-old Greene isn't a big contributor on offense, but his six points in 27 games is an uptick over the five points he had in 55 outings last season. The American blueliner is likely to remain in a bottom-four role, with his 44 blocked shots this season being the most useful part of his rather thin stat line.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Matches point total
Greene has already matched his point total from last season with a goal and five points in 24 games.
Last season, Greene managed those numbers in 55 games, so an uptick in his offensive performance is a big plus. The Islanders are next scheduled to play Jan. 13 against visiting New Jersey.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Modest point streak over
Greene failed to register a point and had one shot on goal in a 2-1 to the Red Wings on Tuesday.
Greene had registered a point in back-to-back games heading into the contest, but Alex Nedeljkovic kept the Islanders as a team scoreless until less than three minutes left in regulation. Greene is the definition of a defensive defenseman, and any offense he provides is simply a bonus.

Islanders' Andy Greene: Removed from protocols list
Greene has cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
At this point it isn't clear if Greene will be in good enough shape to suit up for Thursday's matchup with San Jose, but either way, the veteran blueliner should be ready to rejoin the lineup soon. Greene's picked up one helper through 13 contests this campaign.
