Feisty 2003 Interview With Islanders GM Mike Milbury

Mike and the Mad Dog

On June 3, 2003, the Islanders surprisingly fired coach Peter Laviolette after two playoff seasons.

General manager Mike Milbury appeared as a phone guest on "Mike and the Mad Dog" to explain his decision. The interview became rather confrontational when Chris “Mad Dog” Russo asked Milbury: “How are you the GM? Let’s be fair. Say it the way it is: You have not done a good job here.”
