 Islanders re-sign Trent Hunter
Quote:
The New York Islanders have accepted the one-year arbitration ruling awarded to right wing Trent Hunter and have signed him to a one-year contract. Last season, Hunter appeared in 77 games with the Islanders and scored 20 goals with 15 assists for 35 points.
"Letting Trent go was never a consideration for us," said Islanders general manager Garth Snow. "He's an important piece to our team; that was never up for debate. We're glad he'll be in an Islanders uniform in September."
Last season, the 27-year-old Hunter ranked fifth in the NHL in hits with 246 while only accumulating 20 penalty minutes. In four NHL seasons, Hunter has played in 244 games while scoring 61 goals with 64 assists for 125 points and 76 penalty minutes. He also has a career plus-24 plus/minus rating.
