The 2021 NHL Entry Draft is dragging on longer than a month of detention. But the Islanders emerged from a second nap to take another prospect rated higher by scouting bureaus than where he was selected.
In the third round, at No. 93 overall, they took goalie Tristan Lennox from the Saginaw Spirit, onetime junior hockey home of current Islanders prospects Blade Jenkins and Bode Wilde. Lennox is big at 6-foot-4 and 190 pounds, and is described as having the potential to be an NHL-level goalie.
Via a profile at The Hockey Writers:
While he undoubtedly possesses the raw skills needed to become an everyday NHL starter, his positioning and technical ability have been called into question, as he relies heavily on his size and athleticism rather than his technique to read shots.
