From center to defense, left-wing to right-wing, who are the best players that the New York Islanders have acquired through trade? It’s a long history to look over, but with some bad GMs in the Islanders past, acquiring good players isn’t so obvious.
So what am I look at? I’m only looking at players acquired via trade. I’m not talking about picks that eventually translated into players. So no Mathew Barzal in this one. (Maybe I can do that one later).
I’m also not going to look at the trade package. I don’t care if it cost the Islanders an arm-and-a-leg to get a great player if he was great he counts.
