Islanders sign Samsonov to a new 3 year deal

George Bachul

GM, New York Islanders

The Islanders stood by their word and inked up super young winger Samsonov to a new 3 year deal today, showing him they are serious about keeping him on the Island for years to come.

"We wanted him so we traded for him, and we wanted to keep him so we gave him a new deal. We never talk about the terms of the deal, but he is getting paid like the top 10 winger he is, end of story."
