The fallout from Patrick Roy\u2019s comments on Anthony Duclair were swift and immediate.<\/p>\n
Duclair was not at practice on Thursday and Roy told reporters that he\u2019d asked for some time off to reflect. The Islanders granted the request.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis morning, Anthony and I had a very good conversation, a very positive one,\u201d Roy told reporters after Thursday\u2019s practice. \u201cAnd Anthony asked me to take some time off to reflect. So obviously I agreed to that and we\u2019ll give him all the time that he needs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Whether that means Duclair will play at all over the final eight games of the season is unclear at this point.<\/p>\n
Matt Martin will come into the lineup for Friday\u2019s game against the Wild, with Max Tsyplakov moving up from the fourth line to replace Duclair on the second line.<\/p>\n
For the time being, the Islanders have just 12 available forwards, and could look to AHL Bridgeport for an extra body.<\/p>\n
Martin, who started the season on a PTO, has not played since Jan. 16.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s been a great leader. It\u2019s impressive the way he\u2019s been every day at practice and working and pushing the guys that were not playing and keeping them in a positive mind,\u201d Roy said. \u201cSo I\u2019m excited to give him the opportunity to play tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n
Roy harshly criticized Duclair on Tuesday night, calling the winger \u201cgod-awful\u201d in a 4-1 loss to the Lightning and questioning his effort level.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s not skating, he\u2019s not competing, he\u2019s not moving his feet,\u201d Roy said. \u201cHe\u2019s not playing up to what we expect from him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Duclair, the Islanders\u2019 marquee signing over the summer, has put forth a disastrous season. <\/p>\n
After suffering a groin injury five games into the season, Duclair missed the next 29 games and has been invisible since returning. He has just seven goals and four assists in 44 games.<\/p>\n
There are three years left on Duclair\u2019s deal at $3.5 million annually. He has a full no-trade clause next season.<\/p>\n
The Islanders started Thursday five points back of a playoff spot, with a six-game losing streak in hand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
