Lambert Named Associate Coach

The New York Islanders announced today that Lane Lambert has been named Associate Coach.

Lambert, 53, spent the last four seasons as an Assistant Coach with the Washington Capitals, working alongside current Islanders Head Coach Barry Trotz. Lambert was on Washington's staff that helped guide the Capitals to two consecutive Presidents' Trophies (2015-16 and 2016-17) and the franchise's first Stanley Cup Championship (2017-18).

Prior to joining the Capitals, Lambert spent three seasons as an Assistant Coach with the Nashville Predators. In his first season with the Predators in 2011-12, Nashville recorded the NHL's fifth-best record and advanced to the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Lambert served as head coach of the Milwaukee Admirals of the American Hockey League (AHL) from 2007-11. In addition to four straight Calder Cup playoff berths, Lambert helped the Admirals capture a pair of West Division titles and post the Western Conference's highest point total in 2010-11 (102 pts, 44-22-14 record).

Prior to joining the Admirals as an Assistant Coach in 2006-07, the Melfort, Saskatchewan, native spent one season as an Assistant Coach for the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, the Islanders' AHL affiliate. Lambert started his coaching career in the Western Hockey League, spending two seasons as Head Coach of the Prince George Cougars (2003-05) and two seasons as an Assistant Coach for the Moose Jaw Warriors (2002-04).

I'm surprised Stevens hasn't happened yet. I'm crossing my fingers for him to come here.

Yep sounds like they have been tied at the hip. Welcome aboard Mr Lambert

No not yet and I didn't think it sounded that positive. We are still in the running to get him but Barry said one thing. He goes Korn in now at the point of his life where he will be deciding what is best for him.

I know I for one am really hoping he is coming on the good ship Islander
