The New York Islanders signed veteran defenseman Dennis Seidenberg to a one-year, pro-rated $700,000 contract on Sunday, according to TSN's Frank Seravalli.
The Isles signed Seidenberg to a professional tryout to start the season and he's been practicing with the team at home ever since, according to Newsday's Andrew Gross.
The 37-year-old brings plenty of experience to the table, having played in 859 regular season games and 69 playoff contests during his career. He won a Stanley Cup with the Boston Bruins in 2011.
Seidenberg skated in 28 games with the Islanders a year ago and recorded five assists.
