UBS Arena: Road Trippin'- Home Opener 11/20 vs. CGY

[PolishPrince21]

13 to start and 7 straight near the end on the road, ouch.

 

[Bones45]

Yeah it does.

first 13 all over the place.

league f***ed us hard

Thought it’s the refs who screw us?


We got a new arena and you guys are still bellyaching.


Women.

 

[Isles Junkie]

Not ideal, but a heavy home scheduled 2nd half should be a big plus for this team heading into the playoffs. Trotz could rest people and get some kids some games where he can control the matchups.

Plus, teams build chemistry on the road, and by all accounts, we're going to have a handful of new faces on the team this year.

Get the pitchforks!

 

[Strummergas]

Sort of weird we don't play a game for 5 days from Oct 25-29) which works out great for me since I was just lining up my work schedule(shift work) to the Islanders schedule. That is one week I don't have to worry I work Evenings. lol

That's the "bye" week. Every team gets one.

 

[boredmale]

That's the "bye" week. Every team gets one.

I guess great for me, not so much for the team.

On another side note I work 3 weeks of Evenings while we are on Olympic break, yet another break that the gods gave to me so I could watch as many games as possible. lol

It is to be expected that NY/NJ teams have the most back-to-backs since we're so close. Same with LA/ANA

Our road or split back-to-backs:
at ARZ, VGK
at WIN, MIN
at TB, FLA
at SEA, VAN
at LA, ANA
(Those are all "travel partners," not bad)

DAL at home, at PHI (not bad)
at BOS, home vs TB (not bad)

at BUF, home vs CAR
at PIT, at MON
ARZ at home, at TOR
at DET, home vs CHI (oof)

I'm not worried about the ones that are close, im worried about that arizona/toronto and pittsburgh/montreal one

Pittsburgh to Montreal is a short hop. Arizona’s a home game then a short hop to Toronto.

 

[Beacon Isles]

Thanksgiving Eve game at home against the Rags? That should be a fun one

 

[Osakahaus]

No no, historically speaking we SUCK against the penguins and habs in the regular season. Hate playing those two.

 

[Osakahaus]

Also I hope there is no more delays at this point. They gotta get this arena done in time by November

 

[The Lighthouse]

February crazy with one home game because of everything else going on.

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

TH 12/9 vs NSH
WED 12/29 vs DET
TH 12/30 vs BUF

Looking for two tickets to one of them. Any STH’s, hit me up!

 

[Beacon Isles]

On a related note, are we still waiting on the Isles preseason schedule, other than the 2 Flyers games we know about? Seems we're one of the last teams to announce that?

Winter Olympics really gets in the way for most of February unfortunately

 

[joekono]

Yeah it does.

As usual.

 

[Green]

I don't know if this was mentioned, but are the pre-season games going to be at Nassau? I can see even with Belmont up maybe once a year having a pre-season game there, and I do bet sometime over the next decade or 2 there will be at least 1 more regular season game there for whatever reason

Bridgeport

 

[MJF]

Bridgeport

I think it would be a bad look for the franchise and send a wrong message to the fans if we don't close the book on Nassau Coliseum right now, once and for all. We should not do a "Farewell to the Coliseum-The Aftermath" this exhibition season.

 

[WagnerGrad96]

When will tickets go on sale!?!

 

[periferal]

As a guy who works in construction color me shocked that the project is running late

Well if they didn't ave the 2 month Covid shutdown it would've been on time.

[doublechili]

I don't understand why we don't play a few home games at the start of the season at the Ronkonkoma Costco/DekHockey complex that they built in an effort to lure an NHL team?

I'll believe that complex exists when there are shovels in the ground.
