The New York Islanders are playing what may have deemed the real home opener as they host the Columbus Blue Jackets in the now gloriously sponsored NYCB Live: Home of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum for the first time since 2015. The atmosphere should be electric and the crowd should be close to sold out as the team returns to what many affectionately referred to as “the barn.” The Islanders didn’t have a ton of success at Barclays Center on the ice and never really drew in a ton of fans into their new not-built-for-hockey arena.
