The hockey season has come to a close for most teams. It’s time to see what New York Islanders prospects did at their various clubs.

The New York Islanders have a number of prospects playing for various clubs around the world. Some are just a step away in the AHL. Others are playing the collegiate circuit. Others still are playing at the junior level and some are abroad in Europe.

At the start of the season, the New York Islanders were rated as having the fifth best system in the NHL (subscription required). They’ve been stockpiling talent for a number of years, thanks to poor finishes, and its starting to be noticed.

But that ranking was done at the start of the season before a puck had dropped for any of these players. Now that the season is over, it will be interesting to take a look at how some of these prospects have developed over the course of the season.

Have some of the top-ranked youth in the system continued their upward trajectory? Or maybe a player has emerged from obscurity to demand some attention?

Some of them are still battling it out in the playoffs, but all have completed their regular seasons. It’s a good time to look at their seasons and take stock of what’s currently in the Islanders system.
