We’re all tired of hearing the same old speculation. Belmont, Willets Point, The “New” Coliseum, Barclays Center, Kansas City, all places the Islanders were rumored to have been going to and staying for the past year.
But this time, there’s (at long last) official word on progress being attempted by the Islanders. Ledecky and Malkin are being advised by the Oak View Group, a sports arena development company which is backed by Madison Square Garden, and James Dolan by association.
This is perhaps the one and only time that fans will be happy to hear a partnership with the owner of the rival New York Rangers.
