Islanders Moving To Queens From Brooklyn ?????????

I still don't understand why the Nassau Coliseum wasn't renovated or rebuilt with sufficient seating capacity to keep the Islanders on Long Island. That's where they belong IMO.

Residents voted down a bill to renovate the coliseum. They are under the impression that they already pay a sufficient amount in taxes.
 
I know Nassau residents get hammered with taxes, but the amount to keep the team seemed so minuscule. I'd like to see them in Suffolk over somewhere within the NYC limits.
 
New stadiums are great local economic bonanzas, creating good jobs, revitalizing neighborhoods and generating a lot of local property taxes.

Now more than ever, NYC needs its own full-time hockey arena.

I am a huge fan, however, of the Islanders moving to Belmont Racetrack as per an article the other day. Would be huge for both the Islanders and my hometown, which could definitely use some sprucing up in that area.

Train and freeway access, and plenty of parking.
