New York Islanders President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Lou Lamoriello has one big vacancy left on his front office rebuild; a head coach. After firing Doug Weight, the Islanders are the only team without a bench boss.
According to rumors Lou is hoping to have a new bench boss in place before the NHL Entry Draft which on June 22nd. Weight was fired on June 5th. That gives Lou a total of 17 days to start the search, narrow down the field, interview and make offers, before actually putting someone in place.
But if anyone can do it, it’s going to be Lou.
