Jefferies signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Islanders on Friday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Jefferies was set to have an arbitration hearing, but now that's not needed. The 24-year-old had nine goals, 29 points and 46 PIM in 60 regular-season appearances with AHL Bridgeport in 2025-26. He hasn't made his NHL debut and is expected to begin the upcoming campaign in the minors.
