Evgeni Nabokov will make his first start Monday night against the Bruins since leaving an Oct. 27 loss to the Penguins right before the shootout.

Nabokov, part of the Islanders’ three-goalie rotation, missed the past week-and-a-half with a lower body injury. Al Montoya is listed as the Islanders backup goalie in Boston, according to the team’s website.

Nabokov is 1-2 in four starts this season with a 2.23 GAA.
