Going into the 2018 NHL Entry Draft the New York Islanders have a big decision to make. Do they use both first-round picks to draft players for the future or will they use them to trade for needs on the ice today?
We know that the New York Islanders need a starting goalie. The Islanders NHL goalie depth chart starts and ends with Thomas Greiss.
Two seasons ago that may not have seemed as such a terrible option. At that point, the German netminder backstopped the Isles to the playoffs and even stole a round. But after an awful 2017-18 season having Thomas Greiss as the only capable NHL goalie is a terrible situation.
