As Jon Ledecky hosted Islanders great Bryan Trottier at a team function Monday and the game Tuesday night, more names have surfaced among those that co-owners Ledecky and Scott Malkin have sought out to get various perspectives on the organization.
A Newsday story Sunday reported that the two have been talking with high-level hockey people about a new team president. The discussions have involved potential candidates as well as Islanders alumni whose opinions are valued by the new ownership. Trottier, who appeared with Ledecky and Clark Gillies, Butch Goring and Bobby Nystrom at a Brooklyn rink Monday, would fit in the latter, advisory category.
