Panthers' Roberto Luongo: Back in crease

Luongo will start in goal Saturday night against the visiting Islanders, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.

Analysis:

Luongo had been on a four-game losing skid before dominating the Lightning with a 34-save outing this past Monday. The Isles rank 15th in the league at 2.71 goals per game, which is a decent rate, but they've also lost four of the last five games.
