Bernier signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Islanders on Friday.

Bernier spent the entire 2016-17 campaign in the minors as he failed to secure a call-up during the season. At this point, the winger -- who was taken No. 16 overall in the 2003 draft -- will likely fill the role of seasoned veteran with the AHL's Tigers as he helps groom young players coming up the ranks. For his career, the 32-year-old has logged 633 NHL games with 230 points and 300 PIM, but fantasy owners probably shouldn't expect too many appearances in an Islanders jersey next year.
