You gave him an old team that at its ceiling is a wildcard team, not sure what you want him to do. GM built it..

I don’t think we do.

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Trade him to Colorado for Bednar.

1 for 1.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Trade him to Colorado for Bednar.

1 for 1.

Didn’t Colorado try that once already and it failed badly?

 

[bobholly39]

Trade him to Colorado for Bednar.

1 for 1.

And then have him annoint himself goalie. Winning combination for Avs.

Lou has to be on the hot seat first tbh. It's just not going anywhere with him. Frustratingly mediocre is where they are stuck at whit him

 

[LevelingSolo]

Derek Lalonde though

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

More likely Roy stabs Lou in the back and takes full reign of the hockey ops (as was the plan in Colorado).

Et tu, Patty?

There is never a plan on the Island.

Lou put his eggs all in with Barzal, who is on his way to solidifying his reputation as hockey's Carmelo Anthony.

A coach killer

 

[lawrence]

a coach can only scream at their players for so long, but who knows. I their lack of scoring doesnt have anything to do with him, more like how the team lacks high end offence.

 

[Lame Lambert]

Fire Lou.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

How long until he bails on them too?

 

[Breakers]

What is Roy considered? Don't know much about him

a players coach
or
A system's coach/old school

 

[LeonDraisaitl]

I don’t think we do.

Yeah I don’t know why they would be married to Lou. It’s time to move on

 

[JianYang]

Lou has a history of a quick trigger when it comes to sacking coaches.

Coaches should never get too comfortable with him at the helm.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Having Lou as a GM in 2024 is already a problem itself.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

I don’t think Roy is a particular spectacular coach. But if you own the Islanders, I have no idea how you don’t fire the 100 year old dinosaur who the game has past him by

More the latter I would say. He's very demanding for what it is or isn't worth with today's millionaire athletes. He holds players accountable and has a winning pedigree

The team seemed excited to play for him when he got there last season. I suspect as the malaise continues this season, it won't be long before we hear the same bullshit we heard before they hired Handsome Lane Lambert. "Barry, er Lane ,now Patrick lost the room"

Losing Duclair hurts but tonight, Elvis lost his stick 3 times and the Isles couldn't score. It's not a coaching issue

 

[thestonedkoala]

I want the Wild to crush the Islanders and get Roy fired. They killed his career twice in Colorado

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Could be the next Habs coach.

In no way, shape or form is he a players coach. He's done some psychopathic shit with the Rempart. He loves mind games and is a straight up bully. He's an old school type.

 

[Oilslick941611]

I forgot he was a coach in the NHL. The NYI really are a forgotten franchise

A coach killer

It’s amazing you think that’s the problem when there is next to zero other talent on the team.

You should know the fundamental differences between these two sports, I can’t even begin to explain how wrong this is.
