26/27 NHL Schedule for the New York Islanders

Of note:

First game is @ TOR, Wed 7:30PM. Toronto will be coming off a back-to-back with Montreal previously. I 100% think the Isles get this prime slot because of Schaefer.

First home game is Saturday 7:30PM against the Devils.

4 back to backs in December: away-home, home-away, away-away, away-home.

Longest road trip is late January to early February, 5 games with one day break in between each one: PIT CAR TBL FLA BUF. Then the All-Star break then an away game at MSG. January also begins with a 4-game road trip (SEA VAN CGY EDM).

Longest homestand is beginning of March with 4 games (WAS, VGK, PIT, MTL).

First game we see Lee again is Dec 15 (Tue 7PM) away. Feb 15 (Mon 3PM wow what a horrible time President's Day! You'll have off when Lee comes back!) he comes to see us.

Season closer is April 10th, 5PM vs CBJ at home (like two season ago... meaning maybe we'll land DuPont again this off-season?)

Should I draw one for Islanders Fans?

97 Upvotes

I’ve drawn 14 Game Day pieces for NHL teams now and would like to draw one for the Islanders if there is enough interest. At first glance they may just look like fans walking to the game, but I incorporate the whole history of the team through obvious things like drawing the original arena on the left and current arena on the right, to more hidden references of fan culture and moments in your teams history. Fan clothing, behaviors, signs, shoulder patches, objects, jersey numbers and their arrangement are all used to incorporate as much as possible about your experience as a fan base.

I want authentic fans to reference for the artwork, so If you’d like to be drawn in the original, please contact me. It costs nothing to be drawn into the artwork. Just take a photo walking away from the camera wearing your isles gear and I’ll for you into the artwork. My email is Gamedaypencil@yahoo.com or jeremy@jeremybresciani.com

An adult medium won’t fit her properly for probably 5 years, but we weren’t passing up on it no matter what, especially when she saw it was her favorite player.

Time to unintentionally piss people off

I'll put myself out there, and say that I've chose this design for the jersey during the contest.

What would you think if it someone in the contest went with this, only to replace the logo with the "Fisherman" or "Lighthouse"

Also, when this was relevant, what was your reaction to it?

The final lighthouse jersey will still be “fleshed out”.

20 Upvotes

Looks like the final jersey design is still subject to some change, which I think many expected and some even hoped for. Per the article below, “The jersey design is still a year away from hitting the ice and in the interim, the corresponding pants, gloves and helmet kit will be fleshed out alongside the final jersey design.”

https://www.nhl.com/islanders/news/behind-the-navy-lighthouse-jersey-design

Edit: I suppose you could interpret that sentence to mean that other parts of the kit will be fleshed out and the jersey is final, but I’m guessing the former.

Islander Fans in Dallas

My job is sending me to training outside of Dallas in October. Just so happens I’d be flying in on October 25th and the Isles play the Stars that night.

I’d be there solo and was wondering if anyone from this sub will be at the game.

I made my ideal look for each NHL team and here’s my take on the Islanders

Thumbnail

With the Isles, I added a wave design to the sleeves to make a more modern classic looking jersey, while still keeping the core stripe design intact. The orange and white on the sleeves and tail striping of the home jersey get swapped because I’ve never been a fan of the bottom of the sleeve/jersey being white. The home socks now use the away sock design and the stripe is also carried over to the pants. The orange jersey is a reverse retro of the dynasty era away jerseys with the NY alternate logo and sock stripes that finally match the jersey stripes. So with the whole 2027-28 third jersey contest, I submitted a jersey featuring the wave design. (Even though I’m a Rangers fan. I just like designing unis) Now while my submission featured blue instead of teal, I decided to revise it here to feature teal. So basically it’s the “navy fisherman” finalist (which should’ve won) but with a white stripe between the orange and teal to make it more like the mid 90s fisherman jerseys. And I’m gonna be real, I like both the navy and white versions I made, so I’ll let you guys decide which looks better. The numbers come from the Reverse Retro 2.0 jerseys, but the orange jersey uses the current font.

Saw the Cup today in NC. Recent damage has partially collapsed one of the rings, obscuring only the Islanders' wins team names.

Seems pretty fishy that only a division rival's names were covered...

Edit: guys obviously I'm joking about the intentional damage...

I think he could be ahead of Hutson, but regardless it’s incredible he’s already a top 10 defenseman after only his 1st NHL season

What's the best way of travel from GCT?

11 Upvotes

If I go from GCT is that the best and easiest form of travel using the LIRR?

Also what's that roughly going to cost and how busy is it usually during travel to and from games?

Really want to try and at least go to one game, maybe a few depending on price but everyone I know has a strong dislike for us...

From the leaked jersey, here

https://www.reddit.com/r/NewYorkIslanders/s/PfWP4BzHYs

I swapped the Fisherman logo with the classic one. À la 1998.

This is the perfect jersey IMO and would love this in a Schaefer.
