2015-2016 New York Islanders...

in the last year of the Nassau Memorial Coliseum,the New York Islanders gave Long Island a taste of past Islanders' glory,and NHL fans throughout the League,a glimpse of the Islanders' future... they had a winning home and road record,and they shook the Coliseum down to the roots,and up to the rafters throughout a very good season... they had the best season,since winning the Stanley Cup four straight years,in the 1980's... John Tavares,Nikolay Kulemin,Frans Nielsen,and Kyle Okposo,will guide a very young team offense,while Travis Hamonic,Nick Leddy,Brian Strait,and Johnny Boychuk should punish opponents with a bruising style of defense that New Yorkers should enjoy watching... Jaroslav Halak should be a real rock in net,throughout this season... be warned,going into the Barclays' center,in Brooklyn,should not be a cake walk for opponents,because the Islanders will pound on you from opening puck drop to final buzzer... bring a ton of Ben GayTM,folks...
