Four more years for Adam Pelech.
The New York Islanders signed the 22-year-old defenseman to a four-year extension Monday, a deal which runs through the 2020-21 season.
Pelech split last season between the Islanders and the AHL's Bridgeport Sound Tigers. He tallied 10 points in 44 games with the Islanders, plus five points in 13 minor-league contests.
"Adam has proven at a very young age that he's capable of playing an important defensive role on our team," Islanders president and general manager Garth Snow said in a statement. "He will be an important piece of our defensive core moving forward and I'm excited to watch him continue to develop at the NHL level."
The deal is worth $1.6 million per season, according to Arthur Staple of Newsday.
The Islanders drafted Pelech with the 65th pick in 2012.
