782 wins. 2nd most all time. He won an NHL record 19 straight postseason series. Won 4 Cups in one of the best dynasties in sports history. Also won 3 of his own as a player. The only thing that could take down a man of his caliber was fucking Parkinson’s. Horrible disease and you can only hope that Mr. Arbour is at peace now. As a bandwagon fan only 30 years of age, obviously I cant fully appreciate what he did for the Islanders franchise. But a wise woman once said Numbers Never Lie, and the numbers Al Arbour put up with the Isles during their dynasty run are simply remarkable. Rest in Peace, Al. T’s and P’s to his friends and family.
