There wasn't a lot of debate at the New York Islanders table on the draft floor during the first round of the NHL Draft on Friday night.
The Islanders' scouting staff was unanimous in their decision - if Simon Holmstrom was available at 23, the blonde-haired, blue-eyed and eager Swede was coming with them back to Long Island.
"Our scouts were extremely high on him, where we had him rated," Lamoriello said. "It was unanimous with them, that if he was going to be there at that point, we were going to take him."
