Ex- Islanders star Cal Clutterbuck taking on New York State Open Championship in retirement

Former Islanders tough guy Cal Clutterbuck is trying to turn his obsession with golf into a title at the New York State Open Championship, taking place this week at Glen Oaks Club in Old Westbury, New York. Clutterbuck, who retired from the NHL in April, finished Day 1 of the tournament on Monday with a score of 82, 12-over par, setting up a second day in which he'll need to improve by roughly 10 strokes if he hopes to make the cut to advance to Wednesday's round. The New York State Open Championship is a 54-hole stroke-play tournament that is open to both professional golfers and amateurs who belong to clubs in the state and have a handicap that does not exceed 10.0. 3 Cal Clutterbuck is competing in the New York State Open Championship this week. AP Clutterbuck shot a 43 on the front nine and started the day with a double bogey on the first hole and double bogey on six, before bogeying on seven and eight, but he shot for par on hole nine. The NHL's all-time hits leader, with 4,029, fared better on the back nine, nearly eagling on hole 15, but ended up with a bogey. 'I missed a couple of birdies, but I hit one,' Clutterbuck told after his first round. 'I was putting it well. It's tough, the level of focus you need for almost five hours,' he added. 'When things are going well, you want to just keep riding it. When something happens, you really have to work on just putting it behind you and moving on.' Clutterbuck will tee off for the second round at 12:48 on Tuesday and will be paired with Jimmy Hazen and Chris Fischer. 3 Cal Clutterbuck (15) collides with Tampa Bay Lightning right wing Michael Blunden (46) during the first period of Game 4 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Eastern Conference semifinals, May 6, 2016, in New York. AP The 37-year-old is the second New York sports pro to compete in the tournament in the last three years. Mets infielder Jeff McNeil had competed in the New York State Open Championship in 2023 during the MLB All-Star break. Clutterbuck spent parts of 17 seasons in the NHL, spending his first six with the Wild before he was traded to the Islanders during the 2013 NHL Draft, along with a third-round pick, for Nino Niederreiter.

Getty Images for Heineken Clutterbuck has long held a love for the game of golf and made the announcement that he was retiring from hockey days after attending the Masters. 'I couldn't help but think how I would have never been able to do that if I were still playing hockey,' Clutterbuck said in his retirement announcement. 'Which brings me to this announcement post. Obviously I haven't played hockey in the NHL in a year and I think it's safe to say that everyone assumed, but I'm going to make it official today. 'I am retiring from the NHL, and… um… I really have no idea how to do this. So, that's it. I'm done. See ya.' Clutterbuck spent last season as an analyst for MSG Networks on Islanders broadcasts and will be there in 2025-26 in a full-time role.

Proud Mom Moment: Hillary Trocheck Calls Herself ‘Proud Mom' As Will Cuylle Renews Contract With New York Rangers

Will Cuylle signed a 2 year contract with Cuylle worth 7.8 million dollars this week. (Image via Hillary Trocheck, wife of Vincent Trocheck might not really be mother to Will Cuylle but she's the mother who stepped up. As a rookie Will Cuylle lived with Vincent and his family rather than living in an apartment. No wonder their bond is this strong. And to their delight, the Rangers signed a 2 year contract with Cuylle worth 7.8 million dollars this week. No One Could Be More Prouder Than The Trochecks Hillary took to Instagram and re-shared the New York Rangers' post and added a little heartfelt message 'Proud of my son!!!! Proud mom'. Back when Will Cuylle was a rookie, he was living out of a hotel in White Plains because he had no idea if he'd make the team. But when Vincent Trocheck got wind of his living situation he quickly stepped up. This made Trocheck reminisce about his own rookie year with the Florida Panthers. Knowing how tough his rookie year was, he wanted to make sure Cuylle doesn't feel alone. Thus opening the doors to his house and asking him to move in with his family in Harrison, New York. 'He was like, 'If you'd rather stay here it's up to you. You're welcome to stay here,'' Cuylle said. 'He's an easy guy to get along with, great family.' Trocheck mentioned that Cuylle is loved by his kids and wife and has become a part of the family. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo He also joins the family for activities and dinner. So What Does The Future Hold For Will Cuylle? The new contract for Cuylle comes with a $3.9 million average annual value—a short-term bridge deal as the team and player weigh future long-term options. And as of previous season, Cuylle finished the 2024-25 campaign with a six-point run in the last five regular-season contests. And as the NHL fans state Will Cuylle is one of the promising players out there, they find the contract duration to be inadequate citing, he would be quite expensive after next two years. 'The Rangers should have signed him up for 8 years as they did have resources for it,' a fan stated.
