With 39 points in 68 games in 2019-20, Anthony Beauvillier was having his best season yet for the New York Islanders. After back-to-back years plagued with inconsistent play, 2019-20 was a great change of pace for Beauvillier who gave a more consistent showing on the ice.

Playing With Barzal
The Islanders need to add a top-six winger to their roster.
