They should move the team to Honolulu if you ask me.

everytime i watch a game at the barclays on tv......i cant help but think that place looks terrible for hockey. a quarter of the best seats on the glass are a black void of a few scattered employees and a car. when do they moved back out to long island again?

Weren't they hoping to build a new arena close to Belmont Park?

Although the Islanders have given a 2020 completion date for the project, the team might glide back to Long Island before then. Governor Cuomo has urged the National Hockey League to allow the Islanders to play at Nassau Coliseum in the interim after this season, although Barclays Center officials are hoping that the team will renew its lease with them instead.

do you know if have they broken ground for 2020 move in yet? and did they agree to nassau or barclays in the meantime beyond this season....

Tonight, you can call them the 1st place in the Metro division Islanders.
