Islanders Fire Patrick Roy; Replaced by Pete DeBoer
"The Islanders, who controlled their playoff destiny, are 3-7 in their last 10 games and have lost four straight games amidst the NHL's playoff push."
"During Friday night's loss to the Philadelphia Flyers, it appeared many Islanders had tuned out Roy during a 1st period timeout trailing 2-0."
"Pete DeBoer, who has made runs to the cup final in 2012 and 2016, is hoping he has some postseason magic ahead with his new club."
"Money Puck lists the Islanders with a 31% of making the playoffs."
The New York Islanders have relieved head coach Patrick Roy of his duties after a disappointing stretch, including a 3-7 record in their last 10 games. The team has lost four consecutive games and is struggling to secure a playoff spot. General manager Mathieu Darche has appointed former Dallas Stars coach Pete DeBoer as the new head coach. The Islanders currently sit third in the Metropolitan Division but face challenges with their playoff chances, holding only a 31% probability of making the postseason.
