corywilkins.ca has a free downloadable Nov 09 e-magazine issue #5 called the "10 Year Draft Review" discussing the best, worst and retrospective picks for all 30 teams over the past 10 years (2000 to 2009.)

I downloaded it here and this is what it had to say about the Isles:

NEW YORK Islanders

Picks since 2000: 88 (67 Picks have 0 GP) By Year — 9 in '00, 8 in '01, 7 in '02, 9 in '03, 10 in '04, 7 in '05, 13 in '06, 5 in '07, 13 in '08, 7 in '09

67 Picks have not made an NHL appearance...

13 Picks have between 1 and 99 games played

GP since 2000:
Zero GP: 67; 1 to 10 GP: 6; 11 to 25 GP: 1; 26 to 49 GP: 3; 50 to 75 GP: 2; 76 to 99 GP: 1; 100 to 199 GP: 4; 200 to 299 GP: 3; 300+ GP: 1

In Retrospect

Rick DiPietro (1/1 in '00)

could have been

Dany Heatley (1/2 in '00)

Best Picks

Chris Campoli (7/227 in '04)

Kyle Okposo (1/7 in '06)

John Tavares (1/1 in '09)

Draft Busts

Sean Bergenheim (1/22 in '02)

Evgeny Tunik (2/53 in '03)

Petteri Nokelainen (1/16 in '04)

OK, here is my question: How in the world is Sean Bergenheim number one on a list of the Isles biggest draft bust of the decade??? That seems absolutely ridiculous to me.

That is odd re: Bergie. For a late first rounder, he has been decent (though he certainly has more as yet untapped upside).

From FanHouse MUVPs: Eastern Conference:

Atlantic Division

Andy Greene, New Jersey D -- He's got the everyman name and he's with an organization famous for preferring its players non-famous, but Greene is so good, he could end up on the U.S. Olympic team. Undrafted -- a trend of our list of MUVPs -- Greene emerged Devils style, out of nowhere after four years at Miami (Ohio).

Sean Bergenheim, New York Islanders LW -- He'll never put up the stats to match his first-round pedigree, but the relentless Finn has a habit of jump-starting whatever line he is placed on. Scouts love him and would love to see their GMs pluck him from the Islanders. He's not going anywhere for a while.
