Left behind by Patrick Roy, Samuel Bolduc moves to the AHL

The New York Islanders traded Quebecer Samuel Bolduc to the American Hockey League (AHL) on Friday for conditioning purposes.

The defender has not been used by the head coach of the “Islanders”, Patrick Roy, since January 27th. In 33 games in the National League this season, he scored one goal and two assists for three points while also maintaining a -3 differential.

Bolduc will therefore join the Bridgeport Islanders in the AHL. He has worn this team's colors for the past three seasons.

The Lava native was selected by the Long Island Club in the second round (57th overall) of the 2019 amateur auction.
