          Hang on, what happened between the Islanders and the Barclays Center that caused them to terminate their contract? I missed that.

            Just send them to Vegas and be done with this expansion nonsense.

                  The Islanders moved to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn in 2015 after more than four decades at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. But the Islanders' future in Brooklyn is unclear and Bloomberg reported this week that the arena planned on booting the team after the 2018-19 season due to poor attendance and other issues.

                    The attendance was too low for the Barclay's owners to turn a profit. Their contract with the Mighty Isle is to pay them $X per game, and with the Isle only drawing a little over 12K fans per game, one of the lowest in the league, and the BC group isn't turning a profit. The contract was written in such a way that either side could end it with sufficient notice. The Isle have a grace period for finding a new home.

                      I thought it was only in the discussion phase and the Barclay's Center owner hadn'the pulled the trigger yet.

                              Bloomberg, and others, make it sound like it's all but a done deal.

                              After two years and countless complaints, Brooklyn’s Barclays Center has concluded it’s no longer worth it to host the New York Islanders.

                              The arena, which is already home to the NBA’s Nets and one of the world’s top-grossing concert venues, would make more money without the National Hockey League team, according to people familiar with the facility’s financials.

                              Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov, who owns the building and the Nets, has since November been seeking an investor to take a stake in both. As of earlier this month, a financial projection shared with potential investors showed the Islanders won’t contribute any revenue after the 2018-19 season -- a clear signal that the team won’t play there, the people said.

                              Barclays Center wouldn’t speak to the future of the Islanders. Tim Leiweke, co-founder of Oak View Group, which has been advising the hockey team in talks with the arena, declined to comment, as did a spokesman for Islanders owners Jonathan Ledecky and Scott Malkin.
