This is the wall of famous islanders! All people that have played, coached, or staffed at team in the NHL at one point or another... sometime soon I'll go through it and throw out some names you might recognize.
Brad Richards anyone? Yes, as much as I'm not a fan of his... it's true... he is an islander and he does play in the NHL (I use the term *play* loosely). Here's two autographed jerseys from when he played in TB and won the cup, and then where he is now with the Stars.
Good ol' Bill MacMillan, sort of a legend. He won the cup with the Leafs, back when they use to win games...
He works at the liquor store now with my dad... yep.
Forbie Kennedy... UGH, a Flyer? Yes, if we can produce someone like Richards, we can also produce a Flyer.
He was obviously before my time, and I'm sure he was a good guy... I mean, it's not like they pick where they play... right?
Lastly, just an over view of the room when you first walk in... a bit blurry (my apologises).
It's actually pretty cool and there's a lot of great stuff in there... it deserves more time then I've given it but, I'll also go back sometime and go through each exhibit.
