It began to seem as though center Mathew Barzal and the New York Islanders might not come to an agreement in terms of a contract.
The 23-year-old hadn’t been signed and even though he was on the Islanders’ training camp roster, he missed the first several days , a concerning sight.
But no need to fret, Islanders fans. The young stud is back.
Per David Pagnetta of Sirius XM and The Fourth Period, Barzal was given a three-year deal by the Islanders on Saturday.
Per sources, the Islanders and RFA Mathew Barzal have agreed to terms on a 3-year deal.
