The Islanders selected George with the 98th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft and spent last season playing for the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League.

In 54 games in London last year, George recorded 22 points with seven goals, helping the Knights reach the OHL Finals, where they lost to the Peterborough Petes in six games.

George and many of the Islanders’s prospects will take the ice tomorrow at Northwell Health Ice Center as the organization opens its rookie development camp.
