Girls Youth Hockey EAST MEADOW, NY -- New York Islanders [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-york-islanders/] forward Jean-Gabriel Pageau is back at practice. The 32-year-old, who suffered a lower-body injury in the third period of their 6-3 loss to the Boston Bruins on Nov. 27, missed the last two games with a lower-body injury. He took warmups against the Washington Capitals this past Friday but was a late scratch, missing Saturday's 3-0 shutout win against the Buffalo Sabres. Simon Holmstrom skated on the top line in his absence, putting up back-to-back multi-goal games. Pageau has five goals and five assists in 23 games this season and has won 60.4% of his face-offs to lead the team. He will be a game-time decision against the Montreal Canadiens, skating alongside Kyle MacLean and Oliver Wahlstrom if he does get in.
