Logan Cockerill, Ben Mirageas have both decided to attend college for a 5th season so New York retains their NHL rights. I'm not exactly sure how that works but Andong Song remains a NYI prospect until 2024.
William Dufour, was traded to Saint John, his NHL rights with NYI expire next summer.
New York has Colorado's second round selection, and their own in rounds 3-7.
Prospect page has been updated. U/R & year reflect Unrestricted/Restricted free agent, & next year they need a new contract.
Qualifying offers are due 7/26 are posted/with Salary Cap above.
Finally despite the re-branding, noise/enthusiam from Brett Rossi, talk of renovations for Bridgeport Islanders space in the facility, and all the Lamoriello-Ledecky commitments to Bridgeport, their 20 year operating arena lease did expire on 6/30/21. Whether Centerplate/Boe/Wang/Harbor Yard/Oakview operated the building, a new agreement of some kind is required. The hockey team itself since 2002 never had an actual lease to play there. Wang's agreement was to take over the lease he was required to supply an AHL team or better. There have been several past updates here on this subject.
