Islanders Claim Thompson Off Waivers from Bruins

The New York Islanders announced on Wednesday that they have claimed center Nate Thompson off waivers from the Boston Bruins. Thompson last played in the NHL during the 2006-07 season with the Bruins, appearing in four games and going pointless. He has spent three season playing with the Bruin's AHL affiliate in Providence. The Islanders get a promising forward for their rebuilding team in Thompson. He has the potential to be a physical, scoring forward, something the Islanders are in desperate need of.
