I hope you are all survivng this heat.  I know that thousands are suffering in many ways, and my heart goes out to them.

Thank God that as I write this, that the end of the heat wave is near.  Tomorrow should be significantly better.  Well, if you want to call 88 better.  At least your shirt will NOT stick to your skin.

Not much going out on the Islander front.  Well, with the exception of this…

The New York Islanders have named Ryan Jankowski as Assistant General Manager and Director of Amateur Scouting. The 32-year old Jankowski, born and raised in Calgary, had been the Islanders’ chief European scout for the last three seasons. Jankowski joins pro scouting director Ken Morrow as general manager Garth Snow’s top scouts.

Very interesting… I see the Islander doubters are already lining up for this one….  The constant nagging about moves that are not the big blockbuster items, just drives me to the tequila bottle.  Again, why get to bothered about the front office stuff.

Let’s start talking about the coach and the team, please…. We got about 40 days or so before camp opens up in N.S….. Then maybe, just freaking maybe, we can get into the HOCKEY stuff!

Intersting pic… Well, good luck Ryan!  Hope you and Kenny help Garth dohis job well.

Well back to work….. Next topic is being a Booster - and what it means….

See ya,

Gary
