BRIDGEPORTThe New York Islanders announced this week that forward Travis St. Denis has agreed to a two-year, two-way (NHL/AHL contract.) A former star at Quinnipiac, St. Denis, 25, led the Bridgeport Sound Tigers (American Hockey League) with a career-high 23 goals, 11 coming on the power play, and totaled 44 points in 74 games last season. He added a career-best 21 assists during his second professional campaign.

On March 15, he became the only the fifth Sound Tiger in franchise history to record five points in a single game when he found the back of the net three times, and also recorded two helpers, vs. the Rochester Americans. Overall, the Trail, B.C. native, has 64 points (35 goals, 29 assists) in 124 AHL games.

In four years with the Bobcats, St. Denis collected 125 points (60 goals, 65 assists) and a plus-30 rating in 162 games.  He served as an alternate captain during his senior season. St. Denis also helped Quinnipiac reach the 2013 NCAA National Championship Game, leading the team with a career-high 27 assists and ranking second on the club in scoring with 49 points. The Bobcats qualified for the 16-team NCAA Tournament field in each of St. Denis's four seasons at Quinnipiac.

Prior to attending Quinnipiac, the 5'7, 170-pound forward played four seasons in the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) with the Trail Smoke Eaters and Penticton Vees from 2008-12. During that time, he racked up 225 points (98 goals, 127 assists) in 203 games and led Penticton to a BCHL Championship and Doyle Cup title in 2012.
