Hope For Islanders

From NHL.com

"With less than a month to go before their first preseason game, one word aptly describes the New York Islanders as they head into the 2009-10 campaign.

Hope.

With owner Charles Wang's Lighthouse Project gaining momentum in recent months, combined with the selection of John Tavares with the No. 1 pick at the 2009 Entry Draft, things could finally be looking up for the former dynasty that last won a playoff series in 1993."

A very good read from Brian Compton. It basically goes over what as gone over the last few months for the Islanders. It covers John Tavares being drafted, the signing of Roloson, and Biron, and the future prospects as well as the future of the Lighthouse Project. For those who are not Islanders fans, it's a very good article to get caught up.
