"I was wondering if you guys are scared of John Tavares and the Islanders this year...."

Just saw on Twitter that at the big Lighthouse rally today Islander fans were chanting "1940". It doesn't surprise me that on a day that is crucial to the future of the franchise, their fans are more worried about big brother in NYC.

On May 27th, NHL Tweetup creator dani3boyz will be hosting a Conference Final Tweetup in Farmingdale, NY. It's a great chance to meet with NHL fans from all over, and our very own Joe (RangerReporter) will be making an appearance!

"If I had the chance, I wouldn’t do it (buy the Islanders) again," 

Charles Wang, Islanders owner
