Taylor Cammarata signs ATO with Bridgeport, Islanders’ AHL affiliate

2013 New York Islanders draft pick Taylor Cammarata will remain in the organization, at least for the near term. The forward signed an Amateur Tryout (ATO) agreement with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, the Islanders’ team-owned AHL affiliate.

A third-round pick (76th overall), he was selected for his offensive talent and gaudy scoring numbers in the USHL, where he put up 93 points at age 17 in 2012-13 to earn league Player of the Year honors. His 5’7 frame and average speed are what dropped him to the mid-rounds despite great hands and those eye-popping numbers.
