Pulock is not in the Islanders' lineup for Saturday's Game 6 against the Capitals, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.

Analysis:

There had been some indication that Pulock could be in for Game 6 with the Islanders dealing with a glut of injuries along their blue line, but that won't be the case. Pulock could warrant consideration to play should the Islanders extend their series to Game 7.
