Islanders sign D Logan Stanley to one-year deal

New York had a need for another left-handed defenseman on their NHL roster after sending young Isaiah George and Kashawn Aitcheson down to AHL Hamilton to begin the season.

The 6-foot-8 defenseman skated in 76 regular season games with the Jets and Sabres last season, then appeared in eight more during the playoffs with Buffalo.

His game his built around his size, but he did chip in more offensively last year.
