The Adirondack Thunder have re-signed forward Jace Isley for the 2026-27 season. Isley, 23, began the 2025-26 season with the Norfolk Admirals, where he had two assists in six games before being traded to Adirondack. Isley went down with a lower-body injury after his second game with the Thunder and was limited to just six games with Adirondack, where he had a goal and two assists for three points. He would add one assist during the Kelly Cup Playoffs. This is a solid signing for the Thunder as Isley is a middle-six power forward who can provide physicality and offense when in the lineup. Adirondack now has two forwards signed for next season after signing Patrick Grasso earlier in the week.

Isley finished the 2024-25 season as a member of the South Carolina Stingrays, where he had four goals and nine assists for 13 points in 41 games after being traded to the Hershey Bears by the Utica Comets.
