Islanders' Isaiah George: Still contending with injury

George (upper body) will not travel with the Islanders for the team's two-game road trip, Ethan Sears of the New York Post reports.

The Islanders visit Vegas on Thursday before playing in Utah on Saturday. George is still dealing with the lingering effects of a hit from Max Domi in Thursday's 2-1 loss to Toronto. The 20-year-old George has provided one goal and four helpers through 25 appearances this season. Dennis Cholowski will continue to fill in on the third pairing while George is sidelined.
