Uniondale, NY (SportsNetwork.com) – The New York Islanders activated forward Cal Clutterbuck from injured reserve on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Clutterbuck suffered a skate laceration to his right thigh during a Sept. 17 preseason game against the Calgary Flames.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old Ontario native was signed to a four-year deal worth a reported $11 million in early July after being acquired from Minnesota in a draft-day trade that sent prospect Nino Niederreiter to the Wild.<\/p>\n
Clutterbuck had just four goals and six assists in 42 games with Minnesota last season, two years removed from setting career-high marks in 2010-11 with 19 goals and 15 assists.<\/p>\n
To make room for Clutterbuck, the Islanders returned defenseman Griffin Reinhart to the Edmonton Oil Kings of the Western Hockey League.<\/p>\n
Reinhart, 19, appeared in four exhibition games with the Islanders this preseason and notched one goal and one assist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
