Islanders' Dennis Seidenberg: Signed for remainder of season

Seidenberg signed a contract for the rest of the season with the Islanders on Sunday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

Seidenberg had been on a PTO and has been practicing with the Isles all season long. The contract means that he will continue to provide the Isles with a veteran defenseman insurance policy, but the veteran is unlikely to play unless several injuries bog down the team's defense corps.
