The New York Islanders fired head coach Patrick Roy on Sunday and replaced him with veteran Peter DeBoer in a last ditch attempt to make the playoffs.
JD Young asks Gil Martin what this means for the Islanders short term and long term and why Roy was let go with just four games left in the regular season.

where you are at this point in the season has nothing to do preseason expectations. does that work for sabres or penguins? coming out flat at this point in the season is on roy. is roy a defensive coach? offensive coach? i think he's a goalie first coach so defense backs up with a 6-10 ft gap and hangs the goalie out to dry hoping for a counter punch rush. not sorry he's gone
I'm wondering if Cassidy would have been a better choice. Better reg. season win % (wins/gms coached) .5669, to DeBoer's .5249. DeBoer is the better playoff coach, .542 to .521. Both are good coaches, obviously, time will tell.
