Ross Johnston

Ross Johnston (born February 18, 1994) is a Canadian professional ice hockey forward for the New York Islanders of the National Hockey League (NHL).
==Playing career==
The undrafted Johnston played junior hockey in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). On March 31, 2015, Johnston was signed to a three-year entry-level contract with the New York Islanders.
At the end of the 2015–16 season, his first professional year, Johnston was recalled by the Islanders and made his NHL debut, going scoreless, on April 10, 2016.
Johnston started the 2017–18 season with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, but was recalled on January 19, 2018, to replace the injured Casey Cizikas. He recorded his first NHL point in a 7–3 win against the Chicago Blackhawks. He recorded his first NHL goal on January 25, 2018, against the Vegas Golden Knights to help the Islanders win 2–1. He finished the season appearing in 24 games with the Islanders for 3 goals and 6 points.
As a restricted free agent, Johnston agreed to a four-year, $4 million contract extension with the Islanders on July 9, 2018.
He started his career with number 52, but due to Lou Lamoriello's policy of banning numbers higher than 35, he switched to number 32 prior to the 2018-19 season.
