The New York Islanders have parted ways with head coach Ted Nolan.

Islanders general manager Garth Snow announced Monday that Nolan will not return next season. Nolan had one season remaining on his contract.

“Ted has helped us achieve some success over the last two seasons, however it has become clear that we have philosophical differences and have decided together to part ways,” said Snow in a press release. “Since last season and continuing into the summer, I have realized we do not share the same philosophies. I would like to thank Ted for his two years with the team and wish him the best.
