The New York Islanders have been in business for 47 seasons and have had thousands of players walk through their doors wearing the orange and blue. What I wanted to do was take a look at some of the most overrated, by either fans or the franchise, players in the team's history.
Before I get killed, overrated doesn't mean bad. Please keep that in mind, it means that fans or the team thought the individual was better than they actually were during their time with the team.
I actually like all the players on this list, and likely fall into the portion of the fanbase that overrated these players but when trying to put bias aside, these were the five names that I was able to come up with.
