Lou Lamoriello is notorious for his workings as a National Hockey League general manager. The former New Jersey Devils boss made his share of bold trades, found his share of bad draft picks, and has been known to stick to older players. That is especially true for players he was once tied to.
He’s done it with the New York Islanders, signing and trading for the likes of Travis Zajac, Andy Greene, and Matt Martin. He brought Zach Parise to Long Island after Minnesota bought him out. Parise was drafted, played for, and was named captain by Lamoriello.
