As the Islanders celebrate their final season at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, the organization is trying to cram 43 years of history into one commemorative campaign. Since 1972, the Islanders have enjoyed the highest of the highs on Hempstead Turnpike with many memorable moments, including a run of four straight Stanley Cups from 1980-83.
The team has also suffered through its fair share of tough times, like in 1995 when the management team affectionately known as “The Gang of Four” decided that the Islanders needed a new look. They ditched their classic crest that honored Long Island and introduced the “fisherman” logo.
