That puts them in a very vulnerable position even though they start today still in playoff position by a point.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Simon Holmstrom returned from injury in last night\u2019s home loss to the Flyers, pushing Anthony Duclair back out, but Tony DeAngelo remains out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The action among fellow playoff chasers begins with some mid-day games, if you\u2019re checking in during the afternoon before the Isles get started in Raleigh at 7:00 EDT. The Isles always lose to the Hurricanes, so anything good from tonight is a bonus \u2014 and we can at least pat Carolina on the back for knocking off the Blue Jackets twice this week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">It\u2019s a weekend back-to-back so this game doubles as our game thread.
