The Islanders made a small surprise move this morning, agreeing to terms with undrafted Northeastern forward John Stevens on a two-year entry level deal.
From the team’s official release, because there’s no point in re-inventing the wheel here:
Stevens, 22, served as captain of the Northeastern University Huskies this season and scored 28 points (five goals, 23 assists) in 25 games. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound forward helped the Huskies win a Hockey East Title and reach the NCAA Tournament in 2016. In four years at Northeastern, Stevens scored 106 points (26 goals, 80 assists) in 138 games.
