The disappointment of playoff elimination still lingers for the Islanders. But there seems to be an overriding optimism for the organization’s long-term success.
Co-owner Jon Ledecky, Oak View Group CEO Tim Leiweke and Hall of Famer Clark Gillies participated in one of their regularly scheduled Zoom conference calls with Islanders’ season-ticket holders on Tuesday. These events are typically held every three to four weeks.
The usual ground was covered, particularly how the opening of under-construction UBS Arena at Belmont Park will provide stability and benefit both the team and its fans.
