First round draft picks get the most attention in the NHL but the New York Islanders have truly found some gems in the later rounds of the NHL draft. In fact, they have found players are late as the 14th round (now there are only seven) who became major contributors to the team's dynasty.
Today we examine the best late round draft picks made by the Isles from Garry Howatt and Stefan Persson all the way up to Matt Martin and Anders Lee.
Plus, as the Edmonton Oilers seek to become the first team to come back from a 3-0 series deficit in the Stanley Cup Finals, we remember the Isles magic comeback from a 3-0 series deficit in 1975, the series that announced the arrival of the team as a true contender under Al Arbour.
All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
