#NYC#NYI#isles The New York Islanders since 1972 have proudly been a New York franchise & always will be. Our great traditional hometown fan base represents the entire NY metro area. Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, SI, Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester & NJ. NY/USA/NHL Dynasty.
#NYC#NYI#isles I can't wait for Schaefer and 1/2 players to request a trade vs wearing garbage Fisherman.
They did this in Bridgeport and Oakview kicked them out the door to Hamilton. It's going to happen at the failed Belmont experiment. Call Barclay's save this team now.
#NYC#NYI#isles Anders Lee is sitting in Utah thrilled he did not sign up for more apathy and empty seats from the worst fan base in hockey who can't fill an outhouse.
#NYC#NYI#isles All these jersey concepts, you can bet absolutely no one purchased tickets yesterday. They don't even have open houses anymore because they would have to show thousands of empty seats no one wants at any price.
#NYC#NYI#isles Can't wait until the players get to decide and say what they said in 1995. These jersey's are garbage. You want back 1995-96 so bad you can have Maloney-Milbury back too. Is Darche using this as a diversion from actually signing some players?
#NYC#NYI#isles True New York Islander fan night 1998. Steve Webb throws Fisherman in crowd, no more bad jersey's.
Send Cheeseman back to soccer and anyone who dreamed up this garbage.
#NYC#NYI#isles The alumni despised the Fisherman, the dynasty players considered it an insult. Gillies ran to that dump at Belmont to his dying days and made clear the Fisherman was a personal insult. That horrible LI crew who can't fill an outhouse for games is a disgrace.
@NYIFANCENTRAL I knew the NYI would show their disrespect for its franchise. they think idiots who know nothing about respect & tradition will pick the fisherman clown suit garbage. I picked as traditional as possible. please let all know that is the only choice for respect for the franchise.
#NYC#NYI#isles Not a fan of this approach obviously BUT it fills up data base of people with names/phone numbers they can cold call. And they want your information to submit any design for property they will have exclusive rights to. Watch that fine print kids.
@nlnfoxco@RobertsNYIsles Pelech was fantastic, no hype but everything Hedman is, you don't trade him. He's not replaceable. Fowards like 44-21-53-32-18-11 are so bad in front of net defending protecting house.
#NYC#NYI#isles LD Malte Gustafsson was just a bad pick for Darche. Even if Schaefer can become a RD where does he play as a LD with George, Aitcheson, Romanov, Pelech in front of him? There had to be a winger who had same draft value which they desperately need.
#NYC#NYI#isles Where did all of them go to tell these people today we have a tradition and should NEVER change the uniform or be what Gang of Four/Spano wanted.
@nlnfoxco@RobertsNYIsles Romanov was brittle, broken and unplayable before he got hurt last season. He was slow and a turnover machine and was terrible with DeAngelo. Then he got hurt. That's what I saw. Sorry, no offense.
@Bill231b Long Island died by 1989. No more cups no Potvin, Smith, Bossy the fair weather era was over. NYC fans always carried franchise Barclay's right location with Nets/Liberty. Not moving out of market unless Dolan pays off rest of cable money to 2032 owed now.
#NYC#NYI#isles It makes sense 2027-28 will be the final season before NYI move again due to fan apathy like Bridgeport so let them design a third jersey to make some bucks before it's over.
