First thing he did was trade Bob McKenzie and Pierre McGuire to Sportsnet for Nik Kypreos and a Sportsnet coffee mug. Another good trade, Mike. :rolleyes: :laughing:

Toronto, ON – Veteran NHL player, coach and GM Mike Milbury already has one of the more diverse resumés in hockey. Now he can add another title. TSN today announced Milbury is joining the NHL on TSN broadcast team as a studio analyst, marking his debut as an analyst on Canadian television.
Milbury will appear weekly during the marquee NHL on TSN: Wednesday Night Hockey throughout the regular season and frequently during the first two rounds of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Milbury makes his TSN debut on September 28 during the NHL on TSN Fantasy Draft Special.
"Mike has a reputation for being one of the most entertaining characters in the world of hockey," said Mark Milliere, Vice-President, News & NHL on TSN. "He's controversial and quotable, and will bring a wealth of experience and knowledge about the game to our broadcasts."
"I've appeared on TSN numerous times for my antics as a player, coach and GM, but this time around will be an entirely different experience," said Milbury. "I'm really excited about the opportunity to interact with such a talented broadcast team, while offering my insights on the NHL to Canadian viewers, who are without a doubt the most passionate hockey fans in the world."
Milbury will work in the NHL on TSN studio alongside host James Duthie, analyst Glenn Healy, Hockey Insiders Bob McKenzie and Darren Dreger, and commentator Dave Hodge. In addition to his work at TSN, Milbury will also work alongside TSN's Pierre McGuire this season as a studio analyst for NBC's coverage of the NHL, as well as on NESN's coverage of the Boston Bruins. Milbury's prior TV work has included stints as a weekend sports anchor for SportsChannel New England while he was still playing for the Bruins, and as an ESPN analyst during the NHL lockout in 1994/95.

How big does TSN's studio group need to be? Also, is Milbury completely out of the Islanders organization?
