Islanders' Eric Boulton: Activated off IR

Boulton (lower body) was activated off injured reserve Friday.

Even though Boulton is now healthy, it isn't likely that he draws into the lineup immediately. If he does, Boulton will play limited minutes on the Isles' fourth line for the purpose of adding toughness, not offensive production. In the last four seasons, the 39-year old winger has scored six points.
