I find it hard to blame them. Wang ranks right up there with Bill Wirtz in owners that don't give a #### about the team or their fans, and both teams saw a huge decline under their watches. Difference I guess is that the Islanders have a solid local TV deal.
I also thought that people were musing Wang may have been using the Isles as leverage to get prime real estate for his proposed developments for Long Island and wouldn't have much interest in keeping the team for too long if his Lighthouse project fell through? I really wouldn't be surprised to see him look to sell sooner rather than later.
