Andy Andreoff embodies everything the Bridgeport Islanders are about. Tough, gritty, and hard to play against. On top of that, he has a resilient nose for the net.

Friday was a surreal day for Aatu Raty. He was slated to take the ice with AHL Bridgeport for their game against Hartford, until coach Brent Thompson told him he’s got other plans.

The Bridgeport Islanders have started the 2022-23 season off strong with a 14-8-5 record, and their goaltending tandem has been a driving force.

Ruslan Iskhakov has been part of the New York Islanders organization since the day he was drafted 43rd overall in 2018. He was on the team’s radar even before that. Now he’s putting the rest of the hockey world on notice.

Coachella Valley Firebirds forward Jesper Froden, Bridgeport Islanders forward Ruslan Iskhakov and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins goaltender Dustin Tokarski have been selected as the league’s award winners for October.

The New York Islanders have signed goaltender Cory Schneider, forward Nikita Soshnikov and defenseman Parker Wotherspoon to one-year deals.

The first three days of New York Islanders rookie camp were normal for Simon Holmstrom, but that’s pretty refreshing after the past two-and-a-half years have been anything but.

The New York Islanders have signed defensemen Dennis Cholowski and Paul LaDue and forward Arnaud Durandeau to two-year, two-way contracts, and forward Hudson Fasching to a one-year, two-way contract.
