Islanders fire Lane Lambert, hire Patrick Roy as head coach

[The Crypto Guy]

I’m excited, Roy is a wild man! He’s going to hate Barzal, Roy hated Duchene and Barzal is somehow even more skilled and even more contact averse

Barzal will be healthy scratched within 5 games.

Le Roy Patrick a Long Island houuu yeah

 

[Bounces R Way]

Wow. I like it.

League is better when a apoplectic red faced Patrick Roy is in it. I bet he could beat up Laviolette.

 

[BLNY]

Shaved the beard real quick lol.

We'll see if he has learned anything from his time with the Avs.

 

[Ceremony]

The NHL just became a lot more box office. Fantastic stuff.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Daaaamn

 

[hangman005]

 

[Donuts]

sorokin will be waived

Roy gonna be playing coach.
Starter next game baby

 

[Steddy33]

As much as I don't love the Islanders general direction I give them credit for keeping the bar set high.

 

[John Mandalorian]

Super like this.

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Good luck Roy!!!

 

[GirardSpinorama]

I hope they give him some good assistants. I already felt andee touriney was the guy who installed a winning strucuture with the Avs.

 

[olli]

they should’ve hired Berubi if he agreed

Toronto missed the boat by committing to Keefe. Dude should be canned too.

“Need 5-6 goals to win in this League”

 

[Nevins]

Very happy for Patrick Roy and the Islanders. Ottawa seriously missed the boat...

 

[BrickNHL]

Holy shit that’s hilarious

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Let’s f***ing go

 

[jetsforever]

Cool to see Roy back as a head coach, although who knows if it'll work out for NYI

 

[BobRossColton]

He'll love horvat, hate barzal .

 

[LevelingSolo]

Well this certainly makes the Islanders more interesting

 

[MoreMogilny]

A little bad stretch and Lou pulled the trigger. Can’t blame him for not accepting their poor play

Can we catch some of that accountability over here in Toronto?

 

[benedictTavares]

chaos level 9

 

[Benedict Kovalchuk]

Literally said 'what the f***' when I saw the notification.

 

[John Mandalorian]

they should’ve hired Berubi if he agreed

Chief > Tonto > Toronto

Hi ho Silver!

 

[57special]

Has Roy matured, or is he still a headcase?
