When the New York Islanders set out to build their promotional schedule for the 2025-26 season, the focus was clear: listen to the fans. After years without current player bobbleheads, the Islanders are bringing them back - with Mathew Barzal Bobblehead Night on Nov. 26 against Boston and Bo Horvat Bobblehead Night on Jan. 31 against Nashville. The giveaways, presented by UBS and Hyundai, respectively, will go to the first 10,000 fans in attendance.
“The fan reaction has been great and for us it’s really about putting the fan first in everything we do,” said Simone Perrin, the Islanders’ Senior Vice-President of Marketing and Fan Engagement.
