**BREAKING NEWS ** Mark Streit Out 6 Months with Shoulder Surgery
Tony Stabile | Sep 26, 2010 | Comments 1
As first reported by Katie Strang of Newsday, Islanders defenseman Mark Streit has a torn labrum, and rotator cuff and will miss at least 6 months. Meaning the Islanders would have to make the playoffs for Streit to see the ice again.
Streit was injured during yesterday’s scrimmage in the 3rd period. When we saw him in the hallway outside the locker room, his arm was in a sling and he didn’t look happy. Now we know why.
More to follow on this later….

About the Author: The New York Islanders have been a huge part of my life since I was 7
years old, and during the past 27 years I have experience many ups and
downs with this team. The back end of 4 straight Stanley Cups, the Drive
for 5, the Easter Epic, trading of my heroes John Tonelli, and Kelly
Hrudey. Mike Bossy's early retirement, Pat LaFontaine for Pierre
Turgeon, Dale Hunter, David Volek, Ron Hextall, Al Arbour's retirement,
Bill Torrey to Florida, Mike Milbury, John Spano, The Milstein's,
Hoistgate, the sale to Charles Wang, Draft Day 2000, Alexei Yashin and
Michael Peca, Milbury's "reassignement", 40 days of Neil Smith, Ted
Nolan, The Lighthouse Project, Kate Murray, Scott Gordon, going from 5
to 7 to 9, Josh Bailey, John Tavares, Calvin deHaan, El Nino, the 2
Kirill's and hopefully.....much, much more.
