The plan is for Mathew Barzal (knee) to skate tomorrow, per Pete DeBoer. #Isles
Ilya Sorokin was first off at #Isles optional practice. I'm extremely -- extremely -- confident that he'll start vs. #Blackhawks on Thursday.
Extremely.
Alexander Romanov (lower body) is seeing the doctor today. Will know more tomorrow on his status. #Isles
Good news on the Varlamov front. He felt great after the game physically, and in what's going to be an optional practice today, he's out on the ice. #Isles
#Isles will be skating in a little bit. Yes, we will get an update on Romanov, if he's not out there.
Well deserved after an impressive training camp! #Isles
