Islanders Shock Fans: Iconic GM Lou Lamoriello Sidelined, Future Uncertain
Lamoriello, 82, spent the past seven years running the Islanders’ hockey operations with a close connection to ownership. They missed the playoffs this season but qualified five times under Lamoriello’s watch, including a trip to the Eastern Conference final in the 2020 “bubble” during the coronavirus pandemic.
For the bulk of his time in the league, Lamoriello worked as president and GM of the New Jersey Devils from 1987-2015, a stretch during which they won the Stanley Cup three times. He served as GM of the Toronto Maple Leafs from 2015 until he joined the Islanders in 2018.
