Islanders 2020 Draft: How high could they trade up at draft?

The NHL seems hell-bent on having the 2020 draft in early-June. Which is wild. The regular season isn't technically over so teams like the New York Islanders don't actually know how the 2019-20 season panned out. But yet, teams will still be expected to make possibly franchise-altering decisions at the draft.

It's incredible to think we could have a draft before the completion of the regular season or even the playoffs. But that's the world we seem to be heading towards.

So, if the NHL can play loosey-goosey with the draft, then so can I.
