Report: Lafontaine leaves Isles

The dominoes continue to fall on Long Island, as there are now reports that senior advisor Pat Lafontaine has told team owner Charles Wang that he's resigning. Lafontaine was on June 8, the same days as head coach Ted Nolan and since fired general manager Neil Smith. There It Is take: Is there any other franchise in all of professional sports that is as wacky and disorganized as the Islanders? How the NHL can allow a team in America's largest market to flounder is beyond me (and that's not even mentioning what they've let happen to an Original Six team in Chicago). This organization has become an embarrassment to the League, the city of New York, and the team's fans.
