Daily paper moveWahlstrom was assigned to the taxi squad Friday, per CapFriendly.
ImpactCall him the New York Times -- Wahlstrom is a near-daily paper move candidate as the Islanders balance their salary cap. The 20-year-old will almost assuredly be back on the active roster for Saturday's game versus the Flyers.

Staying on top lineKomarov will continue play on the top line for the Islanders, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
ImpactKomarov doesn't have the skills to be a top-line forward but what he does possess is the ability and willingness to get to the front of the net. The biggest thing the Islanders have missed since Anders Lee (knee) went down for the season was a big body in front of the opposing goaltender. Komarov doesn't have that kind of size, but he is still an agitator that can cause problems in the crease. Komarov only has four assists in 20 games this season, and his stay on the top line will likely only last as long as it takes general manager Lou Lamoriello to acquire a player before the April 12 trade deadline.

Won't play SaturdayDal Colle (lower body) will not play Saturday versus the Flyers, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.
ImpactThe good news is that Dal Colle is staking, but on his own, not with the team. It stands to reason that he will have to participate in at least one team practice before being activated off injured reserve. Dal Colle has had an unimpressive season with one goal and three assists in 20 games. His next chance to play will be Tuesday versus the Capitals.
