Islanders' Johnny Boychuk: Misses practice Monday

Boychuk (undisclosed) was not in attendance for Monday's practice, Brian Compton of NHL.com reports.

Coach Barry Trotz didn't have an official update on Boychuk, telling reporters only that a defenseman would replace Boychuk in the lineup if he is unable to play. The Edmonton native managed just one shot before being forced to exit Saturday's Game 1 after 5:17 of ice time. Noah Dobson or Andy Greene figures to slot into the lineup if Boychuk can't play versus the Panthers on Tuesday.
