Healthy scratch, I'm fairly certain.

Healthy scratch, I'm fairly certain.

He's been listed with an upper body injury for the playoffs and last week or so of the regular season.

According to McMahon, Frozen Fenway likely to return. This is probably the game we speculated about and didn't want to see.

Been there, done that. Don't EVER have to do it again.

Cold, wet, uncomfortable and boring after the first time.

On a much more positive note, Travis Roy will be getting an honorary degree at commencement next week.

One of the local Boston radio shows played a clip of DiPietro calling Mike Francessa "fatso" after Francessa was critical of the Islanders organization. It was just last week I think.

Interesting that Mike F would comment regarding any aspect of hockey. Though I listen to him infrequently, I've heard him say, on several occasions, that he has scant interest in the game, and basically ignores it.

You don't like the Islanders very much, do you?

Yes, according to the official attendance, but I know what a lot of people think about official attendance figures.

They might be a third rate organization but the Bruins are sitting at home watching them in the playoffs.

eh pretty ambivalent about them to be honest, for most of my lifetime they've waffled between a joke and irrelevant.
