New York Islanders Brooklyn Tickets

The New York Islanders have made it to the playoffs in two of the last three seasons. Yes, there is still room for improvement but these are couple of steps in the right direction. A franchise with the kind of history the Islanders have should be right up there fighting for the biggest titles in the sport.

The Early Years

The New York islanders were incepted in 1972 and did not waste too much time in making their mark on the NHL. They posted their first winning season just three years later and also made it to the playoffs that year. That was the start of their journey to the top. The Islanders then went on to clinch successive division championships in 1978 and 1979.

The Islanders Reach the Summit

The division winning exploits of 1978 and 1979 gave the Islanders a lot of belief and they made the most of it. 1980 saw them win their first conference title and the Stanley Cup. The Islanders then went on to clinch two division, conference and Stanley Cup trebles in as many years. They got their hands on the conference as well as the Stanley Cup in 1983 as well. One more conference championship and two more division titles followed till 1988 to make the Islanders the team to beat.

They have made it to the playoffs since then but they haven't been able to repeat those title winning exploits. The time has come for them to make their mark once again. Book your New York Islanders Brooklyn tickets and catch them play at home, the Barclays Center.
