    I'll repost this so more people see so hopefully I can get answer maybe from someone who has been to the stadium. What the hell is up with that new stadium. I know it's been a year or 2 whatever but I am watching islanders game right now and can't get over how awful it looks. It's dark. There are empty areas up near ice instead of seats and big draftops poster or something and best of all a car!!!! Hahaha. I think it's the ugliest inside of arena ever. Every time I see it I always wonder what the hell is up with that place. When I first saw it I thought that car was like a promotion for someone to win when bu idling was first opened. But nope. Still there a year later. I don't get it. Does anyone know what the hell is up with that place?

    Barclays Center is state of the art but probably not the best look for hockey. Nassau was even worse but it had tradition.

    3rd last in the league in attendance. Players have to spend the whole day at a hotel in Brooklyn on game days in a hotel and their home record reflects it. Disaster.

    Ok so nets play there also. I don't recall seeing the car at the nets game. So the main question is does anyone know what's up with that car. Why the hell is it there?? It looks so ridiculous

    Don't know why they couldn't renovate Nassau and keep them in Long Island.

    This whole Brooklyn thing is a disaster, and I won't even mention the Nets..

    Great arena but not built for hockey

    Islanders will end up back in Long Island in a few years

    Still no one has answered my quesion. Does anyone know why there is a car in the stadium??? It looks so freakin ridoculous. I remember watching games at the old Nassau coliseum and thinking it was cool. Whether it was a shit hole or not atleast it looked like a real hockey arena. Anyone k ow what's up with the car??
