Thomas Greiss had to be helped off the ice Friday night, but it had nothing to do with an injury.
The New York Islanders goaltender's right skate blade snapped off early in the second period of Game 4 against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Islanders backup netminder Jean-Francois Berube was pressed into action on a Lightning power play while Greiss got his skate fixed in the dressing room.
Berube made a pair of saves in relief, and the starter was eventually able to return.
Greiss-is averted.
