Islanders, De Haan agree to 1-year deal

The New York Islanders and defenseman Calvin de Haan agreed to a one-year contract Wednesday, the team announced.

De Haan will make $3.3 million in 2017-18, according to Mike Kelly of TSN.

The agreement came at the last minute, as an arbitration hearing was scheduled for Wednesday morning.

Last season, the former first-round draft pick was an anchor on the Islanders' blue line, logging just under 20 minutes per game while blocking 190 shots and dishing out 139 hits. De Haan also chipped in on the offensive end, registering 25 points.

With De Haan's contract now settled, the Islanders' roster is set for 2017-18 while the team has $3.634 million in remaining cap space, according to Cap Friendly.

"Calvin is a home-grown product of the organization and has developed into one of our top defenseman during his time with the organization," Islanders general manager Garth Snow said about his newly inked rearguard.

"He plays important minutes for our club and we're excited to have him back for one more year."
