Bits to chew on for Fat Lighthouse Tuesday:
- Charles Wang will be at this morning's public Town Hall meeting regarding the Lighthouse Project. This bit of spec' in Greg Logan's blog is interesting: The strict Coliseum lease's expiration date (2015) is "close enough that a potential buyer could view an expiring lease as an asset." [On the Islanders Beat] [Update: Guess who was a no-show? Ah, politics.]
- Today is one of those days where public support with the LP really matters, so take an early lunch! [The Light Post: The importance of your support] Problem is, people like 7th Woman must work.
- He's an Alberta boy, but Dean McAmmond chose the
rightonly dynasty to cheer for in the '80s. [Newsday] - After blanking the Devils, Yann Danis' got a puck for his "first" shutout -- then had to clarify that this isn't his first NHL rodeo. [Islanders Outsider]
- The Isles are on pace for a 21-point drop in the standings this season. [From the Rink]
- Three points-related wishes for the rest of this Islanders season. [Drive for Five]
- Case you missed it, here is pretty much all you need to know about the hilarious "Brian Burke" Twittering -- with opportunistic grandstanding from Eklund to boot. [Puck Daddy]
- Rangers fans know, and the ever-grumpy Ken Campbell knows, why don't the Dolans know which genius is to blame for the club's conundrum? [Campbell - THN]
Good luck to anyone who's making the public meeting today.
