The Rangers and Islanders are bitter rivals and tonight they will battle for the last time at the Nassau Coliseum. Next season the UBS Arena in Elmont will be the new home for the Isles and many new memories will be made for both teams. However, the Blueshirts could put up one last win in the Isles “Old Barn”, a permanent stain in the battle between the New York hockey clubs.
The Rangers and Islanders Coliseum History
The Nassau Coliseum opened in 1972 on Uniondale, Long Island and has hosted 131 Rangers vs Islanders classics with the last one on tap today.
