New York Islanders 2016-17 Player Grade: Shane Prince

The New York Islanders made a single move at the 2016 trade deadline. They acquired Shane Prince from the Ottawa Senators and a seventh round pick for their own third round in that year’s Entry Draft.

His most important contributions came in the playoffs that year. When his two goals would help the Isles win game one of their second-round matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

We knew that Prince wasn’t going to magically turn into some sort of top six winger, but the hope was that he could add some timely depth scoring for the Isles.
