    Evgeni Nabokov appears ready to finally join the New York Islanders. The goalie told Newsday he will attend the team's training camp in September.

    "Yes I do plan on attending," Nabokov said, according the newspaper. "Now I will have full preparation for the season."

    The Islanders suspended Nabokov in late January for not reporting to the team after he was claimed off waivers from the Detroit Red Wings.

    Nabokov told Newsday he wants to "set the record straight" after failing to report to New York last season.

    "A lot of people speculated that I didn't want to go to the organization but that's totally not true," Nabokov told the newspaper.
