Islanders defenseman Johnny Boychuk has played his last game.
An eye injury suffered during the regular season, his second injury to that eye, has forced Boychuk to retire, the team announced Wednesday.
Boychuk, 36, underwent "numerous and extensive medical exams," the Islanders said.
Boychuk played the past six seasons with the Islanders, scoring 35 goals and 96 assists for 131 points in 404 games. In 13 seasons with the Islanders, Colorado Avalanche and Boston Bruins, he totaled 206 points (54 goals and 152 assists).
