The hockey world has now come to a complete standstill. Since Thursday, most hockey sites, including this one, have not had an update. The dreadful days of August are upon us, and I can only thank god that there are six weeks left until training camps open across the NHL and the buzz returns.
As for the Islanders, regardless of the standstill, the most important day in Islanders history is tomorrow. At approximately 9:30AM tomorrow morning, Islanders fans, proponents, opponents, and politicians will gather at Hofstra University, and the future of the Islanders will be much clearer following this elongated meeting. After tomorrow, we will have a much better understanding of whether or not the October 3rd deadline will be met by the town officials. After tomorrow, we will see clearly whether or not the Islanders will still belong to Long Island following the 2014-2015 season.
A little heavy for a Monday morning, I understand, however, the emphasis cannot be placed on this meeting enough. If you love the Islanders, if you even are a Ranger fan who loves the rivalry, or if you just want your kid to be able to see the last professional sports team play on Long Island, I highly suggest you try and make your way over to this event tomorrow.
If there was ever a day you could fake sick, if there was ever a day you make up something about your kids, if there was ever a day to use one of your vacation days, tomorrow is the day. That is just how important tomorrow is.
I ask of you, on behalf of myself, of Glen, of Islanders Point Blank and Islanders Independent, on behalf of Let There Be Light(house), and on behalf of all the remaining blogging sites and of the New York Islanders, please show your support. Without the Islanders, this website doesn’t exist, all the phenomenal Islanders blogging websites do not exist, and hockey and professional sports no longer exist on Long Island.
For any information or questions you may have, please check out the Lighthouse Blog at http://lettherebelighthouse.blogspot.com . This is the best website around for everything Lighthouse. If I can't convince you to come, I know that they will!
Thank you for the tremendous support you have shown to Islanders Net, and more importantly, I thank you in advance for the support you will show tomorrow!

I like the passion, I took the day off and I really hope other will do the same.
I'm coming from PA to be there at 8 am lol. Dear God, the Cross-Bronx in the morning....nothing like it (sarcasm). Up at 5 and ready to go. Good luck to all Islanders fans, and also, Long Island. It's long overdue.
From a now tourists point of view, I think my fiance will enjoy coming to Long Island more for Islander games knowing there will be a place to visit, not just come and go, and lodging closer to the Coli will improve then going to the Marriot. That means more money coming out of my pocket, more money for LI, and the Islanders, and FINALLY everyone (including the fiance) will be happy with the new experience. Good times ahead.
To preserve or maintenance your credit history it can be totally vital that you repay as much of the credit card costs since you can each and every month - ideally paying it in full. Financial debt carried on your visa or mastercard positive aspects no one other than your greeting card firm. Hauling a very high stability also threatens your credit and provide you more difficult monthly payments to produce. [url=http://www.ss12w12ws.info]Matrimo5656[/url]
