For those asking about 1 pm games at the coliseum, I did a little schedule research:
Isles play 11 Saturday home games this year - 7 in Nassau, 4 at Brclays. here is the breakout:
Nassau -
10/12 vs Panthers @7
12/14 vs Sabres @1
12/21 vs Ducks @1
1/18 vs Capitals @1
2/29 vs Bruins @1
3/7 vs Hurricanes @1
4/4 vs Devils @7
Barclays -
11/9 vs Panthers @1
11/30 vs Blue Jackets @ 7
1/11 vs Bruins @7
2/1 vs.Canucks @1
Not sure I read too much into attendance as to why/why not the schedule is a certain way, but at Barclays you get 2/4 games at 7, both of which are marquee games against conference foes that will likely be near or in the playoffs.
I know the 1 pm isn't great for most, would much rather 1 pm or 3 pm on Sunday and 7 pm for all of the Saturday games, but I am never opposed to a day drink and those games should be full and a fun atmosphere regardless.
Isles have 3 home games on Friday nights, all of which are at NVMC. They also have 9 Thursday home games, 6 of which are at Nassau. In addition, 4 Sunday home games are all at Nassau, 2 of which start at 5 and the other 2 at 7 pm.
