Talk:Pat LaFontaine

message: Anybody else think its odd that the picture is of Lafontaine in a Rangers jersey?  He was on the Rangers for a year, and spent the prime of his career on the Islanders and to a lesser degree, the Sabres.  Suggest changing the pic to him on the Isles.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.241.225.42 (talk) 02:55, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

message: I've edited the box, to show that LaFonatine tenure as captain was 1992–97, and noted that Mogilny served as captain, for most of the 1993–94 season (due to LaFontaine injury). I wasn't sure, how to put Mogilny into the succession box, without splintering LaFontaine's tenure. Can anyone else improve on this (succession box)? GoodDay 18:33, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

message: "He was determined to return, even though the doctors advised against such an attempt. Sabres management, in conjunction with team doctors and specialists, refused to clear LaFontaine to return, and recommended he retire. LaFontaine, still believing he could play, demanded a trade, which the Sabres obliged"
Does anyone have a source for where Lafontaine "demanded" to be traded after his concussion?  The Sabres Alumni association even says it was a "cost cutting" measure at http://www.sabresalumni.com/playerprofile.php?playerid=10219.  Surely, if he demanded to be traded, wouldn't this have been noted somewhere, a la Dominik Hasek asking to be traded at the conclusion of the 2001 season?  Thanks!

message: I'm rather sure it did not survive LaFontaine's being hired into the Islanders front office and fired like a month later.  Croctotheface (talk) 18:21, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
