I didn't realize that scoring was an issue when they last played. Bunch of bums!

The Isles said Brad Boyes was the first guy they called on July 1st. What's funny is Doug Weight actually had to convince Boyes to sign. I guess his agent forgot to tell him the Islanders were the only team that wanted him.

I think what they meant to say was that he was the first guy they called who actually answered his phone.

With apologies to Major League:

Brad Boyes: [in Mexico, he answers the phone] Hello?
Garth Snow: Brad Boyes, this is Garth Snow of the New York Islanders. How would you like to play for us this season.
Brad Boyes: What?
Garth Snow: We would surely like to...
Brad Boyes: [interrupting] Is that you, Tolbert? Look, I am hung over, my knees are killing me and if you're gonna pull this shit at least you can say you're from the Rangers.

here's another one....


#Isles activate Rick DiPietro from IR. It’s not a paperwork move - he’s been cleared by doctors to play. Now, about when that will happen…

Easier to reach the cap floor with his salary counting against it I would assume. Either that or they're ready to trade him.

Is this Rick or Rob Dipietro?!?

No, no, no, it's Rick Dipietro and Rob Depietro. They just look alike because they wear the same scarves.

If Rick DiPietro was on IR when a lockout began, Islanders would have to pay him. Hence today's very official announcement.
