Welcome to the NYIslesScene!

A blog by a long time New York Islanders fan who stays true to the fellas wearing orange, white and blue…but thinks the Islanders organization has some shaping up to do.

More Than a Great Cause: Warriors Helping Warriors

Nassau County Fire Fighters Operation Wounded Warrior Project

Warrior Firefighters from Nassau County on Long Island have dedicated themselves to helping the men and woman of the US Military by providing support through care packages and trips to visit soldiers here in the US. Each year these volunteers road trip to Walter Reed Army and Bethesda Naval Hospitals in Washington, DC, US Army Post FT Bragg and MCB Camp Lejeune, NC, host fund raisers and welcome home soldiers who have been wounded while serving our country.

Please take a moment to visit their website and consider offering what you can to support their continuing efforts.

Uniform Déjà Vu

Ummm so yeah...got an analogy for you...

Univ. of Maryland's new player ensemble : Islanders fish stick jersey ensemble

I love my Alma Mater as much as another Terp but COME ON NOW PEOPLE!!

Here's the one good thing, I think if it doesn't work against our own players, the patterned design on the uniform will be a visual distraction to the opponent...so to be quite honest I don't know how it was approved in the first place. Hope our QB can filter out the visual noise of throwing to his own players. 

LET'S GO TERPS!!
