Here is an interesting story, the
New York Islanders are moving from Long Island to Brooklyn and will play in a
Barclays Center after the 2014-15 season.

The New York Islanders, according to the New York Post, New York Daily News and TSN, will announce Wednesday they are moving to Brooklyn to play in Barclays Center when their lease at Nassau Coliseum expires after 2014-15.
