Varlamov (lower-body) will back up Ilya Sorokin for Tuesday's game in Montreal.

There was thought that Varlamov could miss some time after the Islanders have recalled goalie Marcus Hodberg from Bridgeport (AHL) on an emergency basis, but the 36-year-old netminder is fit enough to serve as the team's backup netminder on Tuesday. Varlamov owns a 3-4-3 record and an .889 SV% in ten games this season.

The Islanders enter Tuesday's contest as -127 road favorites against a Montreal Canadiens club that will welcome Patrik Laine into their lineup for his season debut.
