“Been in sales for 17 years. People like Jason, who work at the isles pro shop is a reason I proudly will be a returning customer. Grabbing a jersey, he helped me with certain specifics, went out of the way twice. On pick up, he even ironed to make sure optimal condition. This man deserves a raise.”

“Clean well maintained arena, the ties to the NY Islanders make it a bit unwelcoming for some Rangers Fans which is sad for kids who just want hockey. The twin rinks have a cozy fireplace social center and proshop and vendong machines that take credit cards! The clinic instructors are great for those lookong for hockey, there is also an outdoor half rink.”
