The Islanders on Tuesday announced defenseman Samuel Bolduc has agreed to a new two-year deal.
Bolduc, 22, a second-round pick in 2019, made his NHL debut last season with two goals and one assist in 17 games.
The 6-4, 220-pound, left-shooting Bolduc, who was a 2021 AHL all-star for the Islanders’ Bridgeport affiliate, will have a chance to secure a full-time NHL role in September’s training camp.
Bolduc’s new deal reportedly carries an $800,000 average annual value.
