Islanders: Canceled AHL season means expanded rosters

On Monday, the AHL announced that the remainder of the 2019-20 regular season and the 2020 Calder Cup Playoffs would be canceled. With 63 games played, the New York Islanders AHL affiliate Bridgeport Sounds Tigers will not complete their 2019-20 season.

Outside of getting some key prospects a few more games under their belts, the continuation of the 2019-20 season didn't mean much for the Sound Tigers. With a 23-33-5-2 record and 53 points, the Sound Tigers were last in the Atlantic Division, Eastern Conference, and 29th in the league. There wasn't going to be any playoff hockey for the Sound Tigers in 19-20.
