New York Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield (illness) will jump back into action on Thursday against Chicago. He was forced to skip Tuesday's meeting with Los Angeles because of an illness. Mayfield's offensive production has been limited to five points (one goal, four assists), but he enjoys doing the dirty work. In 29 appearances, Mayfield has delivered 53 hits while registering 58 blocks, which ranks him third on the team. The 32-year-old will work alongside Isaiah George on the third defensive pairing, with Grant Hutton exiting the lineup.

He came out of the lineup Saturday versus Tampa Bay with a lower-body injury and will now sit out at least a couple of more games. The Islanders will miss Mayfield's ability to block shots the most. He has stopped 106 efforts on goal while contributing only five assists offensively in 41 games. Sebastian Aho came into the lineup as his replacement on Saturday.

New York Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield (leg) will miss a second consecutive game Friday against New Jersey. After getting hurt in the Islanders' season opener last Saturday, Mayfield returned to the ice for the team's optional morning skate on Friday, but he still hasn't recovered well enough from a left ankle injury to play. Samuel Bolduc will once again deputies for him on Friday, although the 22-year-old will likely continue to play a very marginal role for the team. He logged only 9:19 of ice time when making his season debut in Tuesday's 1-0 victory over the Coyotes.
New York Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield (leg) won't be in the lineup Tuesday against Arizona. Mayfield was hurt in the team's season opener on Saturday against Buffalo when he blocked a shot with his left ankle. He managed to finish the game, but swelling kept him out of practice on Monday, and it looks like the situation hasn't improved. The Islanders will trust Samuel Bolduc as Mayfield's replacement on Tuesday. The 22-year-old skated in his first 17 NHL games last season, posting three points (one goal, two assists), 20 shots on goal, 16 blocks, and 26 hits.
New York Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield is considered day-to-day with a leg injury. His left ankle has swollen up after he used it to block a shot in the team's season opener against Buffalo on Saturday. Mayfield could now be forced to sit on Tuesday when the Islanders host Arizona. "He's got some swelling, and there's maintenance there," Islanders head coach Lane Lambert said Monday. "We'll see how he is tomorrow." Mayfield finished without a point against the Sabres but made his presence felt on the ice with four blocks and two hits in 16:47 of ice time. Samuel Bolduc replaced Mayfield on the third defensive pairing in Monday's practice and appears poised to jump into the lineup if Mayfield doesn't feel better on Tuesday.
