Islanders: Barry Trotz and the bond with his son Nolan

Maybe I'm just that far out of the loop but I learned something recently about the Islanders head coach Barry Trotz. I was reading an article from the NHL website, where Barry Trotz described his time in quarantine and he discussed the NHL going on break.

During this interview, there was a question about Trotz's son, Nolan in particular. Nolan is a 19-year-old special needs child. Like I said, maybe I'm just that out of the loop but I had no idea that Barry had a special needs son, so I decided to read more about the Trotz family and boy was I in for a treat.
