I can officially sit back and enjoy the rest of the season...

Haha, I was thinking the same thing. The whole Vanek thing left such a bad taste in my mouth and wasn't looking forward to sweating it out with Boychuk.

Some freaking closure for once.

 

[2ndGenIslander]

[Doshell Propivo]

[JTforPres2012]

[Bones45]

[2ndGenIslander]

[The Underboss]

**** and yes!!!!!!!

BONNIE JOYCHUK!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect time and money!!! Hell yeah!!!

 

[Le Grec]

From Isles press release "I am proud to be an Islander" - Johnny Boychuk

 

[NYI365]

YES YES YES!!!!! 7 more years of this beautiful man. AND the Boychuk-Leddy pairing. I'm so happy now!!!!

 

[FourRings]

Great news! Very happy. Time to buy a Boychuk jersey without any doubt!

 

[BTrotts19]

1 more year than i wanted, but ill gladly take it!

Agree...can definitely live with 1 potentially bad year but worth it considering the mentoring the kids will be getting for the warrior.

Retiring an Islander, most likely, is sweet music to me.

 

[GilliesGirlie]

I'm over the ****ing moon!!

Boychuk is the new Butch Goring, the catalyst for this team to finally become a true contender.

 

[SI90]

Let's give snow credit for 2 great trades that paid off big time. He'll yeah Boychuk is going to be a warrior for us.

I thought nobody wanted to play here? Lol we are legit boys and girls.

 

[TROLLCHUK]

Great news! Very happy. Time to buy a Boychuk jersey without any doubt!

Can we get a discount for bulk orders?

 

[1Gold Standard]

Well Well Well!!! I just may have to go from being a causal follower of the Islanders keeping tabs on my boy, J.T. to a full on card carrying member of Islanders fandom.

 

[SI90]

Screw Johnny's comments. I want to here what his brothers have to say lol


An underrated part of the deal is we get Sam and Dan Boychuk for 7 more years!!!!!!! That's huge

 

[MBossy22]

YES YES YES Leddy/Boychuck locked up for 7

 

[PWJunior]

Well Well Well!!! I just may have to go from being a causal follower of the Islanders keeping tabs on my boy, J.T. to a full on card carrying member of Islanders fandom.

Haha, you're always welcome here MW... you'd be a great addition to our community!

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

7 years. Good god.

 

[Isles5513]

Holy crap! I just started yelling, kicking, screaming, and flailing my arms!

 

[IslesRock4]

7 years. Good god.

Reality of UFA. When will people accept that?

 

[Islanders1932]

Best day ever! Leddy and Boychuk for 7 years!!!!!

 

[A Pointed Stick]

Great news! Oh, that sound you hear? That is the sound of a'll the Islanders fans rejoicing combined with the sound of all the Edmonton and Buffalo fans weeping who told me, emphatically, that JB was going to sign with them.

What a good day this is.
