The Islanders’ 2022 fourth-round pick (98th overall) scored his fourth goal of the year in Sunday’s matchup against the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. George found open ice in the slot and buried a goal 19 seconds into the game, but the Knights ultimately fell 5-4.

The 19-year-old defenseman recorded an assist on the seventh goal in Friday’s 7-3 win over the Saginaw Spirit. 

With 10 points (4G, 6A) through 29 games, George ranks fourth in scoring among defenseman on his team.  

FINLEY LIGHTS THE LAMP

Quinn Finley came up big for the Wisconsin Badgers on Friday, netting the game winning goal in a 6-3 win over Penn State.

The Islanders’ 2022 third-round pick (78th overall) took three shots and recorded two hits, ending the night with a +2. 

After picking up his first game winner of his NCAA career, the 19-year-old has seven points (5G, 2A) through 18 games this season.
