During the season wrap up process, the New York Islanders struck a decisive tone: we know it was bad, but hey what can we do? Majority owner John Ledecky did his best “disappointed dad” routine as he forced Garth and Doug to field question from reporters. And that was it.
No accountability was taken on the part of the ownership. And that message was loud and clear for the rest of the organization.
Neither Doug Weight or Garth Snow held themselves accountable for how the season had played out. Even though both had their hands in the mess that was a 35-37-10 season.
