The recent injury to Scott Mayfield exposed the lack of depth the New York Islanders have on their blue line. But why haven't the Isles called up Robin Salo from Bridgeport? Salo is one of the team's top defensive prospects but he remains in the AHL. We discuss why and analyze the team's lack of depth on defense.

Plus we preview of the first of back-to-back games against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Islanders can pass the Blue Jackets in the standings if they win both games in regulation. We analyze the keys to victory.

All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
