NEW YORK (AP) — Longtime NHL executive Lou Lamoriello joined the New York Islanders on Tuesday and will have full authority in all hockey matters.

The 75-year-old Lamoriello will hold the title of president of hockey operations. Son Chris Lamoriello has been the team's assistant general manager since 2016.

He comes to a team that has missed the playoffs eight of the last 12 seasons. Recalling the team's glory days from a generation ago, Lamoriello said he is "excited to join such a storied franchise."

It was not immediately clear how the move will affect current president and general manager Garth Snow. He has four years left on his contract. Lamoriello's hiring was first reported by The Athletic, which said Snow's deal has a "steep buyout."
