ISLANDERS ‘BEST SEATS IN HOCKEY’ EXPERIENCE COMES TO BROOKLYN!

BROOKLYN (September 16, 2015) – The New York Islanders will bring the “Best Seats in Hockey” experience to MetroTech Center in Downtown Brooklyn with a unique display of Barclays Center front row glass seats TOMORROW, Thursday, September 17. 

Islanders legend Mike Bossy will visit the glass seats display, greeting fans from noon to 1 p.m. 

The unprecedented presentation will consist of a life-size dasherboard, glass and seat setup, built to the exact scale at Barclays Center. Fans who visit the display will be able to sit in the seats, and experience the unmatched sightline of an Islanders game firsthand.

Barclays Center’s glass seats are unique to any other NHL venue. Positioned three feet higher than average front row seats, the boards start at knee-level, giving fans the perspective of being on top of the action on the ice.

The Islanders will open their inaugural season in Brooklyn on October 9 vs. the Chicago Blackhawks.
