Lou Lamoriello started to dig into his offseason to-do list on Monday, a day before the start of the two-day NHL Draft.
The Islanders re-signed pending restricted free agent defenseman Sebastian Aho and extended qualifying offers to eight of their nine remaining RFAs, including forwards Mathew Barzal and Josh Ho-Sang and defensemen Ryan Pulock and Devon Toews and Josh Ho-Sang.
Qualifying offers were due by Wednesday at 5 p.m. and the market for unrestricted free agents opens Friday at noon. Goalie Thomas Greiss, defenseman Andy Greene and forwards Derick Brassard, Tom Kuhnhackl and Matt Martin are unrestricted free agents.
