Islanders: Over a quarter of current NHL coaches have links to the Isles

The hockey world is small a one. That's why when you look at the other 30 current coaches in the NHL you can link over a quarter of them back to the New York Islanders in some way shape or form.

When I talk about links I don't mean they are related to a player that played for the New York Islanders like Joel Quenneville. Quenneville's second-cousin is David Quenneville, the prospect we sent to the New Jersey Devils for Andy Greene.

I'm talking about direct links to the Islanders. These coaches must have spent some time either coaching the Isles or wore the blue and orange at some point in their careers.
