Uniondale, NY (My Sportsbook) - The New York Islanders named Mike Dunham goaltending coach on Monday, upon the former netminder's retirement after a 10-year NHL career.

"I'm very proud of my career and really enjoyed playing my final year on Long Island," Dunham said. "I'm really looking forward to beginning my coaching career."

Dunham spent last season with the Isles in a back-up role to Rick DiPietro, posting a 4-10-3 record with a 3.74 goals-against average in 19 games.

The 35-year-old New York native ended his career with a 141-178-39 record and a 2.74 GAA with 19 shutouts over 394 games with New Jersey, Nashville, the New York Rangers, Atlanta and the Islanders. He is one of a handful of NHL players to suit up for all three teams in the New York City metro area.

Dunham shared the Jennings Trophy in 1997 while with the Devils, posting the lowest team goals-against average alongside Martin Brodeur. He also was part of Team USA's Silver medal at the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City.

Prior to his NHL accolades, Dunham was named to the Hockey East First All-Star team in 1992-93 for the NCAA champion Maine Black Bears. He was a third-round draft choice of New Jersey back in 1990.

"Mike had an outstanding NHL career and was very well-regarded for his work ethic and his leadership," said Islanders head coach Ted Nolan. "I'm very happy to have all of his experience on our coaching staff."
