NY Islanders Sale Talk ONLY Part IV **Post 400, Isles SOLD**

[Islanders1932]

Lost in all of this is that Wang will still be a minority owner after 2016. Doesn't appear he's ever going to leave completely.

Thats all I care about. I can't imagine a minority owner having much say.

He's old, and him getting breadcrumbs (comparitively speaking) and a small voice at the table until his dirtnap is better than the current state of affairs.

I think it was the same plan with Barroway. I don't mind him having a foot in the door, as long as he's not making decisions.

can Malkin convince Malkin to sign with the Isles?

this is great news, a bit dissapointed that wang is weening himself out, this means Garth aint going nowhere, cappy however better have a good season, you have to believe if they flop in november that he gets the Ax.

 

[Clutcherbuck]

Great news!
Now we have the better Malkin.

This is a shot of an adrenaline to a fan base that has been unresponsive for a long time.

Any Isles fan, who is a true fan, and has followed this mess, will realize the sun is rising. Its not a quick fix, but rather the beginning.

(course, we also said this when Spano was announced! LOL )

Ledecky and Malkin will hold a minority interest in #Isles for next two years and then assume majority control, per agreement.

So Garth and Cap have two years left. If they're not on the brink of a Cup by then, the new guys will clean house.

I'm just relieved the new team will be in control by the time Tavares will need an extension

The day is finally here!!!! Wow!!!

 

[YearlyLottery]

I can't get over this news. This is just great!!

 

[FourRings]

Great news!! Hopefully more spending to come as well!!!

 

[A Pointed Stick]

Was Ledecky good or bad for the Caps?

Good to hear that the club is officially sold. Big wet blanket on my joy hearing Wang is still around though... Can't lie about that.

Wow , happy but somewhat muted. More happy than not though.

Get me a real coach and make me happy please!

 

[Bones45]

If I were Snow, I'd be pretty nervous right now.

As the saying goes...

"The **** just got real"

This is great! The sad part is Wang is still majority owner

I hope these 2 guys are legit. I hate the Idea of a two-headed ownership unless it's the New York Giants. I hope these guys are serious about win in and what it means to play in New York. I don't know either of them besides the guy involved with WSH but WSH hasn't done anything special. Let's just hope the main goal for the new ownership is to win at any and all costs. Not making profits and pinching pennies.

BD Gallof is saying he said all summer, IF the Isles will be sold, it will be a 2-4 year transition period with Wang as majority owner.

You mean 3? After two years wang will go from Majority owner to minority owner but will still be there unless bought out.

Who reads his convoluted stuff?

 

[ML19]

Coincidence that the nhl network is broadcasting the scf game 4 from 83?

This was writing on the wall for the past several years. Look at the potential borraway deal. He would sell 100% or the team then buy 25% of the ownership group.

The waiting is over!!!!!! The New York Islanders have been sold!!! And this one will last many many many lifetimes!!!! Charles' reign is no more (after 2 more years...)
