New York Islanders 2018-19 Training Camp Roster
Time to get dressed.Hope. Structure. Culture.
That’s what the New York Islanders have going for them as full training camp opened Friday. Hope that, you know, things are gonna work out...fueled by the fact a coach known for structure and defensive discipline — sorely needed — is in the house, and a legendary GM has arrived intent on weeding out bad habits (some very real, some very imagined) and building a new culture.
The expected pro roster...looks no better than last season’s disappointing 80-point squad, actually. But even though they lost their captain and second-leading scorer, they are buttressed by lots of competition for jobs and some promising prospects.
