The New York Islanders have dismissed general manager Garth Snow and head coach Doug Weight, with president of hockey operations Lou Lamoriello assuming the GM role, the club announced Tuesday.

Lamoriello will immediately begin the process of finding the team's next head coach.

He joined the Islanders in late May after leaving the Toronto Maple Leafs.
