It’s crazy how badly they missed on so many European’s for so many years.
Crus-Rydberg also amounted to nothing.
How do you not even hit on one Swede. They’re everywhere in the NHL.
I think a lot of it had to do with the low scouting budgets the Islanders had during that time period. When you only have 9 or 10 scouts total, there's not a lot of time for in depth Euro scouting. I am pretty sure at least 75% of our Euro scouting was done at the WJCs.
