Soucy appeared in 62 games over the last two seasons during his brief tenure with the Rangers, tallying four goals and 11 assists while playing just under 17 minutes a night. Soucy now joins a crowded Islanders blue-line that already includes the likes of Matthew Schaefer, Adam Pelech, Tony DeAngelo, and Ryan Pulock, though Pulock is currently sidelined with an upper-body injury.
It's the second time in less than a calendar year that Soucy was acquired in exchange for a third-round pick, after the Canucks shipped him to the Rangers last March.

With trade rumors looming, the Rangers will hold Soucy out of the lineup on Monday for precautionary reasons. The 31-year-old defenseman is averaging 17:13 time-on-ice and has eight points (3G / 5A) in 46 games this season.

Soucy has missed the previous four games for the Rangers due to an upper-body injury but appears set to return to the lineup on Monday. The 31-year-old defenseman has one goal in three games this season. Urho Vaakanainen will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Soucy's return.
Soucy has missed the previous four games for the Rangers due to an upper-body injury and was a full participant in Monday's morning skate, but will start be a game-time decision as he attempted to return to the lineup on Monday against the Minnesota Wild. The 31-year-old defenseman has one goal in three games this season. Urho Vaakanainen will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Soucy's return.
Soucy was able to skate off under his own power after an awkward collision with Rickard Rakell and the sideboards. Soucy should be considered doubtful to play Sunday vs. the Capitals, so expect Matthew Robertson to make his season debut.
Soucy was a surprise scratch on Thursday, with the Rangers not announcing his absence prior to warmups. Urho Vaakanainen will draw into the lineup in his place.
Soucy has played in four straight games with the Rangers, but it looks like he'll be scratched if Fox returns to the lineup on Saturday. Head coach Peter Laviolette said that Fox is "tending" towards playing, so expect Soucy to sit.
With the emergence of Elias Nils Pettersson on the Canucks blue-line this season, Soucy was deemed to be an expendable asset by Vancouver. Soucy leaves the Canucks after appearing in 99 games across parts of two seasons, registering five goals and 11 assists.
Soucy was suspended one game for a late cross-check on Edmonton's Connor McDavid and will return to Vancouver's lineup for Game 5 vs. Edmonton after serving his suspension. The 29-year-old will replace Noah Juulsen in the Canucks' second defensive pairing. He has four assists, six PIMs and a +3 in nine playoff games so far this year.
Soucy will not be available for Game 4 in Edmonton, so look for Noah Juulsen to replace him on the blueline. Soucy will be eligible to draw back into the lineup for Game 5 in Vancouver.
Matt Irwin was reassigned to the Abbotsford Canucks (AHL) on Monday, making room for Soucy to return to the Vancouver lineup. Soucy has not played since suffering a hand injury on January 20th. A steadying presence on the blue line, Soucy has been limited to only 21 games this season due to an earlier lower-body injury and is five weeks into his original five-to-six-week prognosis. The 29-year-old has six points (2G / 4A), 21 hits, and 39 blocks this season.
