Islanders Tickets On Sale Today

The team's home opener is on Oct. 5.

Only a few months removed from their best season in a decade, the New York Islanders on Tuesday put tickets on sale for the first half of the 2013-2014 campaign.

The team's home opener is on Oct. 5 at 7 p.m. against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The Islanders plan to relocate to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn in two seasons, after their lease in Uniondale expires. 

The Barclays Center developers are also in charge of revitalizing the current Nassau Coliseum. A redone arena in Nassau County could still host a few Islanders games each season. 

Also, a minor league team could end up replacing the Islanders as full-time Long Island tenants.
