Fire snow.
He's horrible.

You gotta be kidding. He took one of the worst rosters in the NHL and almost got them into the playoffs.

As @GMillerTSN noted, also hearing how some Kings staff and players went to Lombardi's place last night to say goodbye... strong bonds

See Lombardi can tuck in JT at night boys, all is well

Lombardi would be a great hire....

Completely disagree

Its not a bad roster, its the fact that Snow didnt give team the necessary things to build upon instead of regressing this year ....

Completely disagree

You're obviously entitled to not like the guy, im just curious what it is that you dont like?

I think you do not want Lombardi on the Isles beating the Rangers again.

3 words.. dustin brown contract
dan's right, lombardi would ruin any positives the isles have just like team USA and the Kings
- gopherwildfan

Yes I'd love to know all the positives Lombardi would ruin.

Dean Lombardi April 21, 2006 - April 10, 2017
Won Stanley Cup two times (2012, 2014)
2 conference titles and 6 playoff appearances


great resume but seemed to lose concept of drafting & giving out bad contracts after the success he had recently.
Brown/Gaborik/etc are a few bad ones plus even tho its hard to draft but no solid depth coming thru to help in a salary cap era ....

Resigning Bailey & Kuli long-term .....

Maybe im nuts.......but thats a phucking great resume lol. Be a pal and do the same thing for Snow......lets all have a laugh.

I said its a great resume

No chance of that happening. Lombardi is not Garth. If Isles can get a better GM than Lombardi bring it on.

I'd really love to see what a real GM comes in and does. Im dying to see someone come in and just trim the fat. We as fans deserve to see someone come in and really build a winner.

- eaf62

Exactly........to me, at this point, i'd rather them miss the playoffs than back door it in. To many years of drafting and building the prospect pool up to be back dooring it in. What a joke.

More interested in Sutter than Lombardi as well

Id take Sutter as coach. Who would be the GM though?

Only 4 u ....


Garth Snow July 18, 2006 – ???
Selected John Tavares first overall in the 2009 Entry Draft
4 playoff appearances


best resume today

At least he had a concept at one point
- Upstate_isles

At least Brown and Gabo were key to winning the Cups. Garth signs guys to lousy contracts who have won nothing.

Even if they know where they will be playing... they are contractionlly required to not announce it until 1/1/18 I believe
- Dan Petriw

this is it, because the contract with barclays requires negotiation "in good faith" neither side can announce anything for the future until after that period. If the isles announced a new arena now they'd be buried in a lawsuit.

I don't expect any #Isles front-office news today. Could happen, of course, but holding pattern for now it seems.

Some of you might shit your britches over this tweet, but the good news is that he's not tweeting that nobody should expect a front office move to be made. Call it a stretch if you want, but reading between the lines I think he's saying that something may not happen today but that doesn't mean nothing is happening.
