The New York Islanders are a professional ice hockey franchise competing in the National Hockey League (NHL). Based in Elmont, New York, the team is a member of the Metropolitan Division in the Eastern Conference and plays its home games at UBS Arena. They are one of three NHL teams in the New York metropolitan area, with a fanbase concentrated primarily on Long Island.

The organization is notable for its historic success, having won four consecutive Stanley Cup championships in the early 1980s. This established a lasting legacy within the league. As a core franchise in a major media market, their games and performance are consistently followed by a large and dedicated fanbase.

Recently, the Islanders have been in the news due to their on-ice performance and related game events. In mid-November 2025, the team secured a 3-2 victory over the Dallas Stars, marking their fifth win in six games. This recent success has been a focal point of coverage. The game itself generated additional headlines concerning a disallowed goal for the opposing team and an injury to a key defenseman, alongside commentary from the coaching staff.
