If you played with Doug Weight there’s a good chance you’ll be on the New York Islanders coaching staff before the season starts. Kelly Buchberger is expected to join the staff although it hasn’t been confirmed by either team.
Buchberger was the head of player personnel for the Oilers last season. In addition to that, he was an assistant coach for six years.
If you remember this was rumored as well back in May. We even had this little game set up to get to know both Buchberger and Luke Richardson.
Doug Weight is going with a ton of former NHL players.
