- The New York Islanders announced on Saturday the move to dismiss Lane Lambert and bring in Patrick Roy as new head coach. Director of Scouting Craig Button joins Jay Onrait to discuss the shocking midseason change behind the bench for the Islanders.
Great hire, as a Habs fan i wish the Habs would have hired him, a natural born winner and competitor, good luck Patty👍👍
When the Habs get serious about making a Cup run, they should be BANGING down Roy's door. A proven winner indeed, at EVERY level.
the issue is geoff molson only looking for puppet and is not Patrick Roy cup of tea
Like Button says, look at Lou's record of hiring excellent coaches. I have such a great feeling about Roy for the Isles. That French-Canadian Montreal Canadien excellence blood is now in the Isles organization. Go Isles!
this is a great move by nassau county
Greatest goalie of all time. Little bit worried about him as a coach because he's kind of crazy, but that might actually be a good thing.
WAKE UP! Dominik Hasek is the greatest Goaltender EVER!
Hasek,he couldn't even make any Canadian teams roster. American teams never mattered to real hockey fans.
@@gregoryskretting2382 Your comment confirms You don't know anything about Goaltending and Hockey!
Hasek is not American@@gregoryskretting2382
Great move Isles!
Nobody competes like Roy. Nobody.
I don't think the Habs would make the playoff but I'm pretty sure the ISL will with Roy. Too bad cause i would love to see an Habs-ISL series in the playoff.
Off the ice, that playoff series would be the friendliest. Isles fans and Habs fans love and respect each other’s teams. Islanders fan since birth but I’ll always cheer for the Habs, except when we play each other lol!
Isles won't be boring that's a certainty!
They never were
If I'm an Eastern Cofferance GM, I'd be ready for the Islanders now
GOD DAMD IT .. i wanted leafs to get roy ... now we have definitely sunk our season. This was the one thing that i tought could fix things in toronto for the better.
Had you kept Lou as GM you would have got him. You think Shanny has the pull to get Roy? Lou works behind the scenes and always gets his man. He got Trotz and now Roy.
As a diehard Avs fan, I am beyond excited that Roy is back coaching in the NHL. He is going to do well for the Isles. The Isles are my new team in the East ... Avs first of course!
Patrick is gonna have the team playing to their identity again
Yesssssss
Goalie assist 😄🇨🇦🔥🇺🇸
A guy who loves his beard that much working for Lou? 😂
Beard is already gone, bro. Part of the contract.
Roy is the Goalie GOAT!
WRONG! He isn't even in Hasek's class!
@@seveglider8406 no kidding lol..Hasek is a runaway as the best we will ever see
@@seveglider8406 hard to compare the 2 career as one played in a bottom team and one played on a top team for most of their careers so If you cant really compare their playoff stats, which is where you see different class of goalies, you cant compare their achievements, you cant compare their effect on the game all you can compare are regular season stats which well they mean something but up to a point. 2 amazing goalies that couldn't be more different. Hasek has one real achievement over Roy and its the Olympic that Olympic medal. That being said to say their is a whole class between the 2 of them is crazy.
Roy had a much better career, Hasek had better stats.
One left on top, one became a 2nd goalie.
@@jeanjacques9365 Hasek won 6 Vezina Trophies and 2 Hart Trophies as league MVP. As I previously stated, Roy isn't even in Hasek's class! Roy didn't have a better career than Hasek During his career Roy played on better teams than Hasek!
@@seveglider8406 so we are going to ignore the 3 Conn Smythe (most of any player in the history), the 2 extra cups (all of them as a first goalie not a bench player as Hasek was for his second cup) and the almost 200 wins difference, the fact he has his number retired in both teams he played for (Hasek's number was never retired in the team he won his cups with), the fact Roy left basically on top and then say he had a worse career ?
Ouiiiiiiiiiii
Nice 🎉signing 🎉let’s go islanders
The Isles will be at their best against the Canadiens. Roy is going to want to prove the Canadiens wrong for not hiring him.
SO WHAT! The Islanders only have 1 more game to play against Montreal.
@@seveglider8406 There is next season too.
@@user-yg1dg6xm2g Roy might not even be the Islanders' coach next season. WAKE UP! Lamoriello didn't hire Roy just because the Islanders play Montreal two or three times every season. He would have hired any coach willing to take the job and hope it would help improve the Islanders.
@@seveglider8406 Thanks for stating the obvious: "Lamoriello didn't hire Roy just because the Islanders play Montreal two or three times every season."
@@user-yg1dg6xm2g Here is something You should consider. Lamoriello usually doesn't stick with coaches. He has a history of dumping them even when they help produce excellent results. Don't be surprised if Roy has short tenure with the Islanders.
LETS GOO!
Meanwhile the leafs are sitting on their hands!
Since 1967.
The Oilers nabbed Corey Perry from the Leafs’ possible lineup.
Let’s gooooo
He gunna have to shave. Loopy Lou demands it.
Done deal
Jay working on a Saturday??
It’s a BIG challenge for Roy!
Buffalo is happy with the legendary Don Granato 😢……the more things change etc……
The Islanders just fired head coach Lane Lambert and replaced him with the aggressive Patrick Roy! They will now likely make the playoffs.
The Leafs have sunk into fourth place with the Red Wings just one point behind.
Unless GM Brad “Stand Pat” Treliving does something drastic, they’re not going to make the playoffs.
Time to finally trade local
boy Mitch Marner possibly to the Senators for defensemen Thomas Chabot and Jakob Chychrun and hope the returning goalie Joseph Woll will be better between the pipes.
Roy is a joke who will likely implode with this Islander team. The funniest moment the other night was when they were down 3-0 to the habs and he called a time out. There was a lot of pointing to himself and saying I can't do this, Im not playing. You have to do it. The implication though was if he was playing he'd do it much better, because this is all about him.
The Islanders are on a tank that Roy is going to accelerate. I don't think that was the plan but that's where they are.
Goalie and will drop the gloves😂🇨🇦🥊🇺🇸
What happened in 2016?
he quit (quitted? - english is not my thing...) as the Avalanche coach a few weeks before the start of the season.
He wanted power over personnel decisions, quit when he didn't get it
Also Patrick Roy was the Avs coach and also VP of hockey operations. When the draft for 2016 came around Sakic has been the GM for a few years and started making those decisions with the scouts. Maybe it was a breach of contract? Which lead to a major disagreement between Sakic and Roy. Two weeks before the 2016/2017 Roy resigned. Unfortunately that left a terrible question for Coach- Sakic hired Bednar, rest is history. Hopefully Roy will be better in New York. He did admit to making mistakes in Colorado.
No crystal ball, but it seemed to me they were overperforming, esp. in 1 goal games, under Lambert. What is B. Horvat's NHL record in the last 200 games and was it better under Lambert?
had to do something, Iles were not getting better
Leafs may not make a move until the all-star break. Berube seems to be the top guy. Boucher could be named interim coach until the end of the year if tree can't sign Berube.
Habs fan here, guy boucher would be a fantastic coach for the leafs
This should calm down the boo birds and ensure ticket sales. Wasn’t the Isles attendance going down?
Roy is the modern day version of Mike Keenan. At least a softer version
Never has a goalie had any success coaching they don’t get it
MTL will regret not hiring Him
Roy is a goon, and will always be one. He was lucky that his ex-wife didn't press charges against him back in 2000. I'm glad she left him.
I'm sure he values your input as much as we all do
I think he's better remembered as a Hall of Famer Legend Best goalie ever to play the game, but that might just be my perception of him. Haha
Wrong move Islanders, Roy is not the right choice for Isls, nor any other team, he has a problem controlling his temper, we witnessed that with Colorado Avalanche.
😄🔥🇨🇦🇺🇸
Can we please fire Roy. He is awful as a coach. Islanders are even worse now with him than before.
I was the first like
Don't worry, I noticed!
Roy couldn’t coach his way out of wet paper bag of course button thinks it’s an excellent hire
Good thing winning the Memorial Cup and winning the Jack Adams Trophy isn't a paper bag, then.
