Islanders: What if they traded for or signed that top line winger?

You know the drill at this point. With nothing really going on, we're left to fill the gap by thinking of hypothetical situations. For this one, I'm looking at what if the New York Islanders added that top-line winger we so desperately need right now?

The Islanders have needed a top-line winger for at least a decade now. The search for a top-line winger was the predominant narrative during John Tavares's career with the Islanders. And it's the predominant narrative now during Mathew Barzal's Islanders career.

Since Lou arrived on the Island two years ago, there have been a few bonafide top-line wingers that have been traded or signed in the NHL, what if Lou got one of those players?
