New York Islanders add to their coaching staff, hire John Gruden

For better or worse, it’s been a pretty busy offseason for the New York Islanders.

The team will not only look very different on the ice but they will look different behind the bench.

Signing a five-year deal with the Islanders reportedly worth $20 million, Barry Trotz is the team’s newest bench boss.

Fresh off a Stanley Cup championship with the Washington Capitals, Trotz has brought Lane Lambert to Long Island with him as an associate coach.
