Islanders could lose prospect if not signed to contract soon
If the New York Islanders don't sign Blade Jenkins by June 1, 2020 they could lose him.
In the 2018 NHL draft, the New York Islanders drafted forward Blade Jenkins in the fifth round with 134th overall pick. Jenkins put up 44 points in 68 games during his draft year. Prior to his draft, Jenkins was ranked 26th overall for North American skaters by the NHL.
Just for reference, the 25th overall North American skater Ty Dellandrea and 27th overall Jack Drury were drafted 13th overall and 42nd overall, respectively. So Jenkins fell quite a bit at the draft.
