The Islanders should be attracting the best and brightest candidates for the vacancies in the executive suite. Maybe they are, and maybe that’s the process unfolding behind closed doors.

But in the few weeks since parting ways with Lou Lamoriello — who oddly remains on the franchise directory listed as president, general manager and alternate governor — it seems that we’ve seen or heard about a parade of recyclables vying for the job. Not terribly inspiring.

Marc Bergevin, really?

But we’re not sure whether the Scott Malkin-Jon Ledecky ownership represented by proxy John Collins — listed on the directory as co-owner, operating partner and alternate governor — is seeking to hire one man to run the operation, who will then hire the general manager, who will then make the decision on head coach Patrick Roy and his staff who have been left in limbo.
