The Islanders used their picks at the 2017 NHL Entry Draft to grab two wingers and five defensemen of generally normal human size. One is on the older side and could be in the AHL as early as next season, while a couple, as befitting late round draft selections, appear to be long term projects.
Oh, and they also traded a former stalwart for a bushel of future picks for either them or someone else to use later.
Let’s round up all of the draft weekend happenings for easy reading.
Thanks so much to Jenny for covering all of this for us today.
