Brady Tkachuk stuffs it in in the waning seconds. #Isles down 3-2 and probably going to get what they deserve out of this. Could be out of a playoff spot if everybody else wins.
I genuinely think if the @AHLIslanders moved to the Coliseum they would take decent attendance away from the actual Islanders
That’s how good the Coli is
Bridgeport may not have been the nicest city but at least it was good logistically with it being only a 1hr ferry ride away from LI.
Now it’s going to be a 4 hour flight and they’ll have to deal with customs and shit; it just seems like a hassle.

Did the Isles give a reason(s) as to why they were making the move? I get it’s a new arena and such, but with the longer travel, I’m confused as to why they think it’s better.
Thanks!
Should the Jets try to make playoffs or embrace the draft?
Held a debate with myself — and one Murat ended up getting kind of mean about the whole thing 🤷🏻♂️ ⤵️

"This guy is so sensitive when it comes to change"
This morning on #FirstUp, @Aaron_Korolnek and @CarloColaiacovo discussed the current playoff format, Gary Bettman's stubborn loyalty to it and why the league may benefit from a format change. Do you agree? Let us know! 👇
@OrbitStudios Sad, but true about American fans. There’s those of us that watch the NHL, and the 4 year fans for the Olympics. It’s been that way forever, and it will continue until the league finds a way to better market its stars.
1. It’s not his puck
2. What is wrong with it being in the *checks notes* Hockey Hall of Fame? That’s the ultimate honour.
I can’t wait for Americans to go back to not giving a shit about hockey again.
I give it another week.
