NEW YORK -- The New York Rangers have given Sammy Blais a one-year contract extension after the forward missed most of his first season with the team with a lower body injury.
General Chris Drury announced the agreement on Friday without releasing details.
Blais skated in 14 games, collecting four assists and posting a plus-3 rating. The 25-year-old ranked third on the Rangers with 37 hits and was tied for first in plus/minus before sidelined on Nov. 14.
The Canadian has 17 goals and 22 assists in 133 NHL games split between the Rangers and St.
