Islanders' Berube to make surprise start vs. Wild
Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports
The New York Islanders are coming out of the All-Star break with a surprising change to their lineup.
Jean-Francois Berube will make just his second start of the season Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. The 24-year-old lost his first start, giving up four goals on 34 shots against the Chicago Blackhawks on Oct. 10.
Berube was recalled Monday following a conditioning stint.
The move comes despite the fact that the both members of the Islanders' regular goaltending duo, Jaroslav Halak and Thomas Greiss, are well-rested following the break.
