After the much-anticipated trip to China fell through and weeks of uncertainty about where training camp would be held, the Islanders have decided to remain on Long Island. Islanders general manager Garth Snow said this will be the first time in a long while that the fans can be part of the camp (expected to begin September 17) as opposed to years past where they've been on the road. "It's going to be exciting to have training camp right here in long island. Our fans haven't had that opportunity for the past few years and it should be fun to connect with the community," Snow said. Another benefit to staying at home will be the decrease in travel compared to the action-packed, travel-intensive training camp of recent years. "Absolutely, although there are pluses on having camp elsewhere, too, but the good thing about Long Island is there is a lot we can do team-building wise and with the community." KS |

Don't look a gift training camp in the mouth! Whatever the reason, I'm glad it's going to be here on LI. |

I bet they'll charge for parking and there may be some more of these entrance fees, you know for charity.

Training camp is supposed to be exactly tthat. TRAINING. Not community anything, sorry to say. There will be ample time for that on off days and I am all for giving back. But not during season preparation time. I also think it is the time to bond as a team, away from all the crap. Don't like it. Don't understand it. For chrissakes, go to Lake George or something. Geeez, UpChuck, you ordering in take out at the rink for the team meal? Ya cheap bastid. |

Bring back...PRIDE OF THE ISLAND

I can think of only one reason to have training camp on Long Island....the Islanders are moving away, and its our time to say goodbye. |

ALL I'LL SAY IS I HOPE THEY HAVE IT AT THE COLISEUM AND NOT AT ICEWORKS GIVE THE FANS SOME ROOM TO WATCH TRAINING CAMP NOT LIKE WHEN THEY HAD IT AT ICEWORKS WHERE YOU HAD TO EXHALE AND STEP BACK TO MAKE MORE ROOM |

I checked the NVMC website and it looks like Elmo or Seaseme street is the 9/17-9/19 so maybe the first few days are at iceworks and then the rest at NVMC? |

With the road trip shortened from China to Uniondale, media coverage will be a lot stronger. Not really. They'd probably get the same amount of media coverage in China that they get here. Nothing.
