New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has acquired defenseman Jyri Niemi from the New York Islanders in exchange for a sixth-round pick in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft.
The Rangers and Niemi have agreed to terms on a contract. Niemi is expected to attend the Rangers’ annual Prospect Development Camp this summer in the days following the NHL Entry Draft.
Niemi, 19, skated in 50 games with the Saskatoon Blades of the Western Hockey League (WHL) this past season, registering eight goals and 21 assists for 29 points, along with 67 penalty minutes and a plus-nine rating.
