Yeah well that's a bit of a different question. Smaller venues will always seem/be more intimate and fun and rowdy (not just for sports). I agree that gets lost with bigger stadiums, particularly if they are only 2/3 full. But the stadiums need to make money, and if the Islanders aren't the only tenant (and actually a potential revenue negative like they are at Barclays), they need to make up that revenue with extra capacity for other events.
