the beginning of the month, said in a
conference call yesterday that his decision ultimately came down to playing in a traditional hockey market at
Madison Square Garden for an Original Six team — even if it meant leaving money on the table.
“You can make more money elsewhere, but at the end of the day, you
want to be happy,” the 37-year-old Canadian said. “I played in non-traditional hockey markets and I wanted to experience something different.”
ESPN.com reported that Boyle es-
chewed more lucrative offers in
choosing to play for the Rangers. He
previously fielded interest from the
Red Wings, Lightning, Maple Leafs
and others. The Islanders, who originally traded for Boyle’s rights from
his old club, the San Jose Sharks, also
“made a big push [and put in] a lot of
effort,” Boyle said, but ultimately no
one could top the Rangers.
“I’ve read [stories] that say I wanted to be on a contender,” he said.
“Well, there’s no guarantee. The Islanders are an up-and-coming team,
but at the end of the day, I wanted to
go to an Original Six team.”
Boyle led the Sharks in ice time last
year, averaging 21:52 per game, and had
12 goals and 24 assists in 75 games despite an early-season concussion that affected him for the first three months of
the season, he said yesterday. “A lot of
people were saying it was the age factor, but I don’t buy that for a second,”
he said. “I have no problem playing minutes. That’s why you keep yourself in
shape . . . I’m going in to make a difference. I’m one of the guys who wants the
puck and who wants to make plays.”
Boyle said he hopes to bolster the
Rangers’ struggling power play but
recognizes that with players such as
Ryan McDonagh, Dan Girardi and
Marc Staal on the team, he might not
get the playing time he’s accustomed
to receiving.
“You gotta earn your ice time, no matter what I’ve done in the past,” he said.
“It’ll be a competition of sorts, but at
the end, we want to win hockey games,
and if I have to play less, so be it.”
There were so many factors that
went into his decision, he said — not
the least of which was being able to
play in one of his favorite places, the
Garden.
He’ll be reunited with an old friend,
Martin St. Louis, whom he played with
on the Lightning. “It was a big factor,”
he said. “We’ve had similar careers
and it would be a great opportunity to
play with him again.”
Then, about the 39-year-old St. Louis:
“And I’m not going to be the oldest guy
on the team anymore. That’s why I
wanted to go to the Rangers.”

In January 2014, I made one of the best decisions of my life. After a consultation with
Dr. Popper, we decided to proceed with dental implants for both my upper and lower
teeth. He promised me that he would make me a new person. Boy was he right. After
4 painless visits (I didn’t use one painkiller), he performed magic! I can honestly say

down to the Beach Hut with his
wife at least three times a week
in the summer.
“They have everything going
on here from salsa to rhythm and
blues to rock,” he says. “The food
is great, too. I tell everybody to
try the linguine with clam sauce.”
Wait . . . linguine and clam
sauce? Yes, the Beach Hut has a
bit of an Italian flair because of
Emmino’s background. Among
beach fare like corn dogs and
burgers are local favorites: homemade baked clams ($9) and rigatoni a la vodka ($13.50).
“We had nothing like this when

be stuck with hockey puck hamburgers and pizza rolls.”

It took me 8 ½ years to make my way to this

my courage to call, Dr. Howard Popper spoke to
me and reassured me to come in for my exam. I

I never did experience any pain, that was huge for me.
