Islanders fans create petition to keep games at Nassau Coliseum

Mikhail Prokhorov's Onexim Sports and Entertainment will shutter the Nassau Coliseum, home of the New York Islanders. As you can imagine fans weren't too pleased about the surprise development.

Onexim is shuttering the Coliseum as it struggles with $100 million in debts and with the inability to host events, like Islanders games or concerts at the venue.

In response, Isles fans have taken to the internet to get their voices heard and to ideally get something done to reverse that decision.

The Petition

After hearing the news about the Coliseum, Islanders fan Cole Healy decided to try and get his voice, and hopefully, those of other Islanders fans heard.
