Status report
Neither team held a morning skate; the Islanders won 4-2 at the San Jose Sharks on Saturday. ... Hogberg was activated from injured reserve Sunday and could start after missing 14 games with an upper-body injury; New York returned goalie Jakub Skarek to Bridgeport of the American Hockey League. ... Gibson, a goalie, returned to practice Saturday after being unavailable for a 4-3 loss to the St. Louis Blues on Friday because of an injury that occurred in a 3-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday. Husso, who backed up Dostal on Friday, was returned to San Diego of the AHL on Saturday but was then recalled Sunday.
