Islanders Anxiety - Episode 332 - Huge Aura Void
Mike and Dan react to the news that Lou Lamoriello has been let go by the Islanders and examine his legacy and possible replacements.
Lamoriello was far from perfect as a general manager. He operated under his own set of old school rules and made mistakes in service of loyalty to players rather than making changes that would advance the team towards a Stanley Cup. But The Lou Lamoriello Experience is one we’ll never forget, and it gave us some of the best seasons of our lives.
We trusted Lou in ways we have rarely trusted anyone in this franchise and while the organization needs a change of direction, we’ll miss certain things about him. They don’t make them like Lou any more.
