Noah Dobson had just starting heating up for the Islanders, but the defenseman is out indefinitely after suffering a lower-body injury.

Noah Dobson has been the lone player in the Islanders’ top four who hasn’t dealt with injuries this season, but his status is a major concern after Monday night. Dobson left the 3-1 win over the Blue Jackets at the 1:16 mark of the third period with what appeared to be a leg injury after taking a hit from Cole Sillinger.

The New York Islanders returned for practice one day after beating the Columbus Blue Jackets 3-1 on Monday night. During the game, Noah Dobson took a nasty-looking fall after a hit by Justin Danforth and did not return.
