The Islanders' previous captain was one of the best players in the world, the star around which an otherwise low-wattage franchise revolved.
Now the two most famous Islanders are their general manager and coach, Lou Lamoriello and Barry Trotz, and their captain ... well, he is not John Tavares.
But Anders Lee has been a neat fit for a team of equals, a steady presence off-ice whose on-ice style is akin to that of a low-post center. (Mathew Barzal is the flashy point guard, if we're doing basketball analogies.)
