Hudson Fasching 1-on-1 Interview Ahead Of His Return To Lineup
Fasching has not played since Jan. 5.
New York Islanders head coach Patrick Roy is making a few lineup changes ahead of their game against the Boston Bruins. While the big story is the return of defenseman Noah Dobson, Roy is swapping out Pierre Engvall for Hudson Fasching.
Fasching has not played since Jan. 5 and has no points in 19 games this season.
Here’s Roy’s reason for the move:
“We want energy. That's what we are looking for on that line, with MacLean and Gatcomb. And he needs to go out there, finish his check, show some physicality. That's what we want.”
Following Wednesday’s practice, I caught up with Fasching, who is excited about his return.
