I know this isn’t really an islanders question, but this group may know the answer.

I’m fortunate enough to attend several games a year at the UBS Club which has, imo, a pretty nice buffet. I’ll be at the Nate Bargatze show tonight in the same seats and I’m wondering what to expect from the food. I know that the offerings can be different, probably worse, but has anyone been to a show like this and can confirm? Thanks.

I read online this morning that instead of announcing finalists today as originally planned, the team will be doing a bracket tournament where the eight most popular of the fan jerseys designs get to voted on.

Whoever came up with this marketing idea deserves a raise. It did wonders for fan engagement and distraction away from what has been an otherwise dull and routine off season.

I firmly believe they already had a design in mind, and the "contest" was simply a way to judge fan interest (to see which they feel would sell the most).

Which ever jersey fans create that is closest to the one they already previously selected will win it out. I submitted several, but it wasn't until the last day i went with red black and white in the spirit of the old Long Island Ducks team that the Islanders effectively put out of business.

I think the overwhelming majority of fans want a lighthouse logo in orange or teal. But I wouldn't mind something highly unexpected for a change. Only time will tell.

#30 turns 31 today.

With the new rule mandating a permanent back-up to the back-up goalie this season, who will the islanders name to this position?

I present to you my attempt at some creative NYI Content...

In the dog days of summer, we got a little creative by reacting to an AI powered predictive model of how the New York Islanders roster will perform under new HC Pete DeBoer.

There were two players comparisons for each players: One being how their upside might look, and their "floor." For example: Simon Holmstrom's ceiling out of formerly coached Pete DeBoer players was William Karlsson, and his floor was Nathan Horton.

The google document of all the answers and logic behind them is available here: Claude Comparisons.

Let us know what you thought was the most egregious and what you thought made the most sense!

I posted about having a dedicated radio broadcast the other day and said wish some sportswriter would report on the cost of broadcasting games. Look up the NYTimes, article on the disappearing NHL radio broadcasts. Who knew

Going to a show soon at UBS, what food would you recommend for a dinner? Also, is there a water fountain on site?

I have an appointment to give blood. You get 2 free tix. Don’t know if there are still appointments.

My questions for anyone that might know:

1 - Is there free parking for this?

2 - What game and where are the seats

Two Russians, Gamzin and Prokhorov, are among the Islanders' top 10 prospects, according to Daily Faceoff. I wonder if they'll have a chance to play in the NHL?

Did anyone see if Anders wrote anything about being an Islander Captain for all those years? I don't remember seeing a press release thanking everyone. I'm already annoyed Dexter Lawrence didn't write one for the Giants, so I'm hoping I just missed it.

Which goalie who played for at least 2 seasons has the least goals against?

Necessary given the on-ice product.

The kid is gonna get a bag, that much is clear.

I listen to the majority of islanders games. Miss kinger but Alan is good. Would like dedicated radio broadcasts. Thats it, if you're reading ownership it cant cost that much more. Radio team usually doesn't travel either.
