Looks like the Islanders won the Lindros Sweepstakes. Seems playing in the Patrick/Atlantic is his inevitable destiny. Lindros, Sundin, Jagr, Bure... *shivers*. Do they have decent defensemen and goalies?

Buffalo will likely take Forsberg. What's the rest of the team look like?
The Islanders at this point have Ray Bourque, and that's about it. They are old and shallow. Easily one of the oldest teams in the league. Ofcourse, that prospect pool is elite!

Buffalo's top line consists of Vinny Damphousse, Pierre Turgeon and Teemu Selanne. Damphousse is the oldest of that group, at 23. That's pretty legit. They also have Patrick Roy in net, but's he's not played to his abilities. The D is old and meh. The forward depth is non existent.
