The New York Islanders announced an NHL contract has been reached with Bridgeport Sound Tigers goalie Jeremy Smith for the remainder of the 2018-19 season, a move that means he could be the third goalie on the depth chart if injury strikes the Islanders during the stretch run or the NHL playoffs.
Smith is 29 and has some NHL experience with the Colorado Avalanche from 2016-17. This season he has shared the crease in Bridgeport with Christopher Gibson, who is already on a two-way NHL deal.
