The New York Islanders finalized most of their offseason work in one day by signing four players to multiyear contracts. Goaltender Ilya Sorokin got a three-year deal for $12 million, homegrown forward Anthony Beauvillier got three years and $12.45 million, deadline pickup Kyle Palmieri got $20 million over four years and fourth-line mainstay Casey Cizikas got six years for $15 million. Veteran general manager Lou Lamoriello had been conspicuously quiet for much of the summer aside from signing defenseman Adam Pelech to a $46 million, eight-year contract in early August. The NHL season begins Oct. 12. The Islanders will open on a 13-game trip while their new arena is completed.
