Ahead of the 36th anniversary of both the “Miracle on Ice” and the New York Islanders’ first Stanley Cup championship, I decided to sit down with Morrow, who played a big role in both.

Morrow, who is currently the director of professional scouting for the Islanders, said he had no idea he’d be leaving Lake Placid for Long Island.
