The New York Islanders are bringing back one of their restricted free agents by re-signing forward Shane Prince to a two-year contract, the team announced Friday.
Prince will earn $850,000 per season, reports Newsday's Arthur Staple. The new salary marks a small raise from the $700,000 he earned last year.
The 23-year-old was acquired in a mid-season trade that sent a third-round pick to the Ottawa Senators. He finished his first full NHL season with six goals and 11 assists in 62 games.
