[Jonny Lazarus] Entendre une rumeur selon laquelle l’ancien capitaine des Islanders, Michael Peca, pourrait se joindre au personnel de Peter Laviolette avec les Rangers de NY. Il a travaillé avec les Capitals en 2020-21 dans le développement des joueurs et a passé les 2 dernières saisons en tant qu’entraîneur adjoint de la AHL avec les Americans de Rochester.
Hearing a rumor that former #Isles captain, Michael Peca, might be joining Peter Laviolette’s staff with #NYR
He worked with the #ALLCAPS in ‘20-21 doing Player Development and spent the last 2 seasons as an AHL Assistant Coach with the Rochester Americans.

I really hope this doesn’t interfere with Mika consistently winning 40% of his faceoffs.
this would be interesting if true. Peca primarily coached the offense in Rochester and their prospects have developed nicely there. he also would be a fresh coach alongside Laviolette on the bench (as he was never an assistant under him), although, as mentioned in the tweet, he did serve in player development under Laviolette for Washington’s taxi squad in 2020-21 which wasn’t great.
will have to look into this more
Inb4 fish stick fans start saying, « Derrrr, you need former Islanders to win anything, derrr… »
Wasn’t peca one of the dudes who chased lavi out of the islander?
Jesus haven’t heard that name in long time
Let’s hope Peca can teach Mika a thing or two about winning faceoffs!
