New head coach Patrick Roy has brought passion and intensity to the New York Islanders. While it will take some time for him to make the changes he wants and to implement his system, we are already seeing some differences since his arrival.
We also discuss the possible addition of Benoit Desrosiers as a new assistant coach which has been rumored but has yet to be made official.
The Islanders also activated goalie Semyon Varlamov off IR and returned Ken Appleby to Bridgeport.
And we have a full preview of tonight's home game against the defending Stanley Cup champion Vegas Golden Knights.
All this and more on today's Locked On Islanders Podcast with Gil Martin.
