Nino on way back

Yes, the New York Islanders have returned F Nino Niederreiter to the Portland Winterhawks.
The fifth-overall pick in the 2010 NHL draft, Niederreiter, 18, had a goal and an assist in nine games with the Islanders.
He had 60 points, including 36 goals, in 65 games with the Winterhawks last season, his first in the WHL.
He also had a memorable World Junior Championship with Switzerland, including an OT goal that defeated Russia.
Meanwhile, F Brayden Schenn, a product of the Brandon Wheat Kings, will be in the lineup tonight for the Los Angeles Kings as they meet the Stars in Dallas. Schenn, 19, was the fifth overall pick in the 2009 NHL draft. The Kings have indicated that they will keep Schenn with them, rather than return him to Brandon.
