Berube has sat as the Islanders’ third goalie all season, only appearing in one game, stopping the only shot that he has faced. Berube has gone 3-2-1 with a 2.71 with a .914 SV% in six career starts. Tonight he will take on the Sabres, who have gone 4-2-1 while averaging 3.29 goals per game since Jack Eichel returned to the lineup.

Berube, 24, was hampered by a lower-body injury early in 2015-16, limiting him to just 12 games between the NHL and AHL. In seven games with the Islanders, he was 3-2-0 with a 2.71 GAA and .914 SV%. In his brief time with Bridgeport, he was 4-1-0 with an impressive 1.25 GAA and .960 SV%. Berube will continue to serve as the Islanders’ third goalie behind Jaroslav Halak and Thomas Greiss.
Berube has missed the last five games of the regular season, but will return as Thomas Greiss’ backup in Game 1 vs. the Panthers. The 24-year-old went 3-2-1 with a 2.71 GAA and .914 SV% in six starts and one relief appearance in the NHL this season.
The Islanders have recalled Chris Gibson from Bridgeport (AHL) because Berube is unavailable to backup on Monday. The Islanders are already without Jaroslav Halak, so things are getting difficult in goal for them. Look for Thomas Greiss to start tonight vs. the Lightning.
Berube allowed one goal on 23 shots in the Islanders win over the Senators on Wednesday. Since Jaroslav Halak was hurt, Berube has gone 1-0-1 while turning aside 55 of 57 shots (.965 SV%). He has played very, very well and tonight he draws a strong matchup vs. a Hurricanes team that has lost five of their last six games.
Berube stood on his head on March 15th, stopping 33 of 34 shots in the Islanders’ shootout loss in Pittsburgh. It was an exceptional outing for Berube, who is now 1-1-1 with a 2.52 GAA and .924 SV% in three starts this season. Tonight he will take on a Senators team that is on the tail-end of a back-to-back and come in having lost five of their last eight.
Berube has split his season between the NHL and AHL. He has not started an NHL game since February 2nd and has gone 1-1-0 with a 3.21 GAA and .905 SV% with the Islanders this season. In his time in Bridgeport (AHL), he has gone 4-1-0 with a 1.25 GAA and .960 SV%.
Berube spent the All-Star break on a conditioning stint with Bridgeport (AHL) and he excelled, going 4-1-0 with a 1.25 GAA and .960 SV%. He is fresh after playing all week, so the Islanders will roll with the hot hand in their first game back. Berube allowed four goals on 34 shots in a loss to Chicago in his NHL debut back in October.
After missing three months with a lower-body injury, Berube went to Bridgeport on a conditioning stint, where he went 4-1-0 with a 1.25 GAA and .960 SV%. He had to be recalled because his conditioning stint was up, so he will likely be traded or put on waivers because the Islanders already have Jaroslav Halak and Thomas Greiss.
Berube has not played since October 10th, but was finally activated from IR and sent to Bridgeport on Monday. Berube was an impressive 37-9-4 with a 2.18 GAA and .913 SV% with Manchester (AHL) last season.
Berube has not played since Jaroslav Halak’s been healthy, so he will go to Bridgeport to get some game action in. He can stay with Bridgeport for a maximum of two weeks.
Berube, 24, will make his NHL debut tonight against the Blackhawks. He was recently claimed off of waivers after spending the last three years with Manchester (AHL), the Los Angeles Kings’ minor league affiliate. Berube posted a 37-9-4 record, 2.18 GAA and .913 SV% in 52 games with Manchester last season.
Berube, 24, was claimed by the Islanders as insurance for Jaroslav Halak, who has been battling injury during the preseason. The 24-year-old net minder had an outstanding 37-9-4 with a 2.18 GAA and .913 SV% in 52 games with Manchester (AHL) last season.
Martin Jones is battling an injury, so the Kings have recalled Berube to be Jonathan Quick’s backup. However, there is no word whether he will make it for tonight’s game. The 23-year-old is 19-4-3 with a 2.05 GAA and .920 SV% with Manchester this season.
No immediate fantasy hockey value while playing in the AHL.
