New York Islanders Information
Elmont, New York, is home to the New York Islanders, a professional ice hockey team. The UBS Arena is the home venue of the New York Islanders, an NHL team from the Metropolitan Division of the Eastern Conference. In 1972, the franchise was established as part of the NHL's efforts to prevent a World Hockey Association (WHA) team from moving into the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in the New York suburb of Uniondale.
In 2022, to coincide with the return of the Fisherman logo on the team's reverse vintage kits, Nyisles returned as the club's secondary mascot with a completely new look. MSG Sportsnet and MSGSN 2 are the primary local broadcasters of Islanders games. The play-by-play announcer is Brendan Burke, while the color commentator is Butch Goring, a former player with the Islanders. For the 2014-2015 season, Shannon Hogan has been serving as the broadcast team's studio host.
The Islanders secured a spot in the playoffs after defeating the New Jersey Devils 4-1 in April 2024. Forward Kyle MacLean has inked a three-year deal with the Islanders.
This was the second year in a row that the Islanders lost in the first round to the Carolina Hurricanes; this time, the series went the full five games.
As part of a trade, the New York Islanders will get the following from the Chicago Blackhawks: their first-round pick (#18) and second-round pick (#50) in the 2024 NHL Draft, as well as two second-round picks (#54 and #61).
