Už zajtra (28. júna) o 1:00 ráno odštartuje vstupný draft NHL, počas ktorého si mnohí mladí a talentovaní hokejisti splnia svoj detský sen – zahrať si v najprestížnejšej lige sveta. V posledných dňoch vrcholia špekulácie, výmeny a snahy klubov čo najlepšie zúročiť svoje výbery.
Na tohtoročnej draftovej lotérii mali New York Islanders iba minimálnu šancu získať prvú voľbu – konkrétne len 0,5 %. Najviac sa očakávalo, že sa šťastie usmeje na San Jose alebo Chicago, no napokon všetkých prekvapili práve „ostrovania“, ktorí si vybojovali výber číslo jeden. Ich voľbou by sa podľa všetkého mal stať Matthew Schaefer – sedemnásťročný obranca, ktorý je v hľadáčiku skautov a odborníkov už niekoľko mesiacov. Svoje kvality plánoval potvrdiť aj na Majstrovstvách sveta do 20 rokov, no počas zápasu proti Lotyšsku utrpel vážne zranenie a vynechal zvyšok sezóny.
Prvé tri miesta na drafte sa zdajú byť takmer isté – Schaefer, Misa, Frondell. Islanders však majú záujem aj o ďalšie zaujímavé meno – James Hagens. Rodák z Long Islandu, dlhoročný fanúšik Islanders a nádejný center s výrazným ofenzívnym potenciálom. Jeho postavenie na drafte je však nejednoznačné. Zatiaľ čo niektorí ho vidia ako jasného člena top 3, iní ho z prvej päťky úplne vynechávajú.
Štvrtý výber patrí Utahu, piaty má Nashville. Generálny manažér „predátorov“ Barry Trotz v nedávnom rozhovore uviedol, že Hagens je „v poriadku“, čo by mohlo naznačovať určitý záujem. Ak by Islanders chceli okrem draftovej jednotky získať aj Hagensa, museli by rokovať práve s tímom zo Salt Lake City. Protihodnotou by mohol byť napríklad produktívny obranca Noah Dobson, ktorý má síce vysoké platové očakávania (až 11 miliónov dolárov ročne), no patrí medzi najžiadanejších hráčov na trhu.
