The New York Islanders have named Chris Lamoriello as director of player personnel, the team announced Friday.
Lamoriello, 44, previously served with the New Jersey Devils, beginning his tenure as a scout in 1996 and, until his resignation in 2015, as senior vice-president of hockey operations, as well as general manager of the club's AHL team.
"Chris brings a tremendous amount of knowledge to our organization," said Islanders general manager Garth Snow. "He has more than 20 years of experience in the industry and we are thrilled to have him on board."
Lamoriello is the son of Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Lou Lamoriello.
