No. 3 Nassau Veterans Memorial Stadium


WHEN WAS THE NAME CHANGED???

By Christina De Nicola (Contributor) on September 1, 2010
ANOTHER EXPERT THAT DONT KNOW sh!t





The second hockey team of New York, the Islanders have played at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum since 1972.

As the second-oldest arena behind the Rangers' Madison Square Garden, it has the smallest capacity of all arenas in the NHL without a standing room.

But it hasn't been alive since the 1980s when the facility was referred to as "Fort Neverlose" because of four consecutive Stanley Cup victories.

Since then, opposing teams' fans and even frustrated homers have called it the "Nassau Mausoleum." It also refers to injuries that take place in the entertainment circles.

In 1972 it was nicknamed the "Bust Palace" for arrests that took place at rock concerts.

For more than 10 years the Islanders have tried to replace it. Renovations are finally scheduled to get underway.

Unlike the other thread where you have actual hockey fans making predictions.
This one is one of those throw away pieces.

The author's bio:

Quote:
 
Christina is an rising senior majoring in print journalism and sport administration, with a minor in psychology, at the University of Miami. She is part of B/R's Inaugural Writing Internship Class.

As an intern for Collegebaseballinsider.com, Christina covered the southeast region through Omaha. With the Atlantic Coast Conference's Road to Tampa Bay she became the campus correspondent for a Hurricane team that never made it that far. As a volunteer intern with the Miami Heat over the past two years she's found out why Dwyane Wade will not leave Miami (he hates cold winters).

When Christina's not busy working as editor in chief of The Miami Hurricane or calling UM baseball games for WVUM, she religiously follows her favorite TV shows that have yet to be canceled.


College student. Not a fan...sports jounalism major. Good luck to her but
I highly doubt she knows more than what she's read or lifted when it pertains to the NYI's and the NVMC.
