The New York Islanders have signed forward Joey Larson to a two-year, two-way contract that will see him play in both the NHL and AHL. The move was announced by the team on social media.
Larson, 25, is a right-handed forward who has not yet played an NHL regular-season game. He brings experience from the AHL, where he has developed his game and worked toward an opportunity in the NHL.
The contract marks a significant step in Larson's career, providing him with the chance to compete at the highest level while continuing to gain valuable experience in the minors if needed.
This signing adds depth to the Islanders' forward group and provides the team with flexibility as they continue to build their roster for the upcoming season.
