Friday March 2

There were 7 games played on Friday March 2. It was a relatively slow night for Former Islanders. The recap is as such:

• Mathieu Schneider recorded his 10th goal of the season in Detroit's 6-2 thumping of Chicago at Joe Louis Arena.
• Alexei Zhitnik keeps making a good impression with Atlanta tallying an assist on the final goal in the Thrashers' 4-2 win at home over Ottawa. This was his second assist in only his second game with his new team.

Keep your eyes open on a very busy Saturday night. That's it for this edition.
