Ice not nice at Barclays Center, so special agent Dan Craig is on the case

The man in the above picture is Dan Craig, not to be confused with current James Bond Daniel Craig. Dan (not Daniel) Craig is the NHL's Facility Operations Manager. He's the guy who makes sure NHL teams can not only play games in their home arenas, but also host games at places like Dodger Stadium and Fenway Park. And that look on his face is (probably) not the result of watching the Islanders stumble their way around on the ice during Saturday's 5-0 loss to Pittsburgh.

Craig has been dispatched to Barclays Center in the wake of complaints from more than a few Islanders players about the ice conditions there.
