Islanders Prospect Statistical Update: 1/18/22

With the Islanders dealing with an onslaught of injuries and positive COVID-19 tests throughout 2021-22, there have been countless players getting chances to skate on the ice at UBS Arena when it might have been unlikely going into the season. Robin Salo, one of the Islanders’ top prospects, is one of those players and is having a strong first chance with the NHL team. Let’s check on how Salo and other Islanders’ prospects are performing around the world.

Notes: In order to qualify for this list, a player must have not played 25 or more games in a single season, six or more games in multiple seasons, or has passed their 26th birthday. All players are listed in alphabetical order under their position (forward, defense, goalie), not in any particular ranking order. All statistics are as of Jan. 18, 2022.
