In his draft year, Noah Dobson not only scored 69 points in 67 games for the Acadie-Bathurst Titans, but he won the QMJHL championship followed by the 2018 CHL Memorial Cup. It’s why New York Islanders GM Lou Lamoriello didn’t hesitate to take him at number 12.
The 18-year-old blueliner not only puts up points but has the maturity of a player beyond his years. He’s clearly a building block for the New York Islanders in years to come.
But with the problems on defense that the Islanders had last year as well as this season, how soon until we see Noah Dobson in orange and blue?
