It’s been years since the New York Islanders were frequently involved in individual awards. Since that dynastic run in the 80’s the Islanders have fallen off the relevancy radar of the NHL. And thus nowhere near the awards ceremony.
Sure the Isles had that run in 1993 when they went to the Eastern Conference Finals, but that was a blip in an unremarkable number of decades since Mike Bossy, Bryan Trottier, and Denis Potvin ran the show.
Rarely have the New York Islanders had representation at the NHL Awards ceremony? Rarely have one of their players been awarded for individual achievements.
