Practices with team Johnston (undisclosed) practiced with the team Monday and is expected to be available to play Tuesday versus the Capitals, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

Impact Johnston had to leave the game early Saturday after taking a right hand from Samuel Morin of the Flyers to the head. Although it was never announced, it seems likely that Johnston may have been removed due to having a possible concussion. Whether he did or didn't have one, Johnston is back with the Isles and can play Tuesday should coach Barry Trotz want to insert him into the lineup.

Hurt after fight Johnston (undisclosed) was injured in the first period of Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

Impact Johnston fought Samuel Morin early in the game, and the former left for the locker room. The 27-year-old Johnston didn't return after either the first or second intermissions. It's unclear what he hurt in the fight. If he doesn't get back on the ice Saturday, his next chance to return is Tuesday versus the Capitals.

Inserted into the lineup Johnston is playing versus the Penguins on Monday, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.

Impact Johnson had been a healthy inactive since Jan. 26 as the Islanders didn't feel like they needed his level of toughness. Unfortunately, Johnston took a penalty on his first shift, and the Penguins scored on the ensuing power play. If that goal ends up costing the Islanders the game, this may be the last game Johnston plays for another two months.
