Kyle Palmieri has solidified his future with the New York Islanders, signing a two-year contract. The 34-year-old forward played a pivotal role last season, contributing 48 points (24 goals, 24 assists) in 82 games, placing him third on the team in scoring. Originally drafted by the Anaheim Ducks, Palmieri has amassed 527 points over his NHL career, showcasing his ability to perform in high-pressure situations, including the playoffs.

Additional roster moves include defenseman Adam Boqvist, who signed a one-year contract after a productive stint with the Islanders. Boqvist, a former 2018 first-round pick, posted 14 points in 35 games last season. These signings mark the first moves under general manager Mathieu Darche, signaling a proactive approach as the Islanders look to improve after falling short of playoff contention last season.
