New York Islanders: Josh Ho-Sang Don’t Be The Mario Balotelli of Hockey

So New York Islanders rookie/prospect Josh Ho-Sang is a “baby” and “Immature” according to his Bridgeport Sound Tigers coach Brent Thompson. Add it to the list of hiccups in the Josh Ho-Sang affair with the Isles. Even if Thompson meant that in relation to Ho-Sang’s age, it’s still tough language from the bench boss.

Since he’s been drafted there have been a number of issues between the club and Josh Ho-Sang. He’s slept in late and missed the first day of training camp. In his first AHL season, he couldn’t follow instructions from the coaching staff, leading to him being benched and scratched.
