ST. LOUIS -- The New York Islanders made another addition to their blue line Monday, acquiring defenseman Scott Perunovich from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick in the 2026 draft.
The trade announced by the teams comes on the heels of the Islanders signing Tony DeAngelo to a contract for the rest of the NHL season. DeAngelo made his debut Saturday after signing for a prorated $775,000 on Friday and clearing waivers.
New York has won four in a row after losing 27 of its first 44 games, and is in seventh place in the eight-team Metropolitan Division.
