Evaluating New York Islanders LW Anders Lee’s 2019-20 season thus far

Error 0:

New York Islanders captain Anders Lee is trying to lead his team to the playoffs but is struggling to put up points this season.

Before the season was suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak, the New York Islanders were fighting for a playoff spot. With 80 points, they’re currently just one point behind the two Eastern Conference wild-card teams: Carolina Hurricanes and Columbus Blue Jackets.

Captain Anders Lee surely felt the pressure of improving his team down the stretch. Lee was selected by the Islanders in the sixth round of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft and became the team’s captain before the 2018-19 campaign.
