YOUR GUIDE TO THE 2005 NYI TRAINING CAMP
Print
The New York Islanders are back.
Here is your guide to the first week of training camp -- alphabetical and numerical rosters, plus a chart on how every player got here.
Although the gang will be in Yarmouth for the first week of camp, newyorkislanders.com will have you covered. We will have at least two reports daily from Yarmouth, Nova Scotia -- line combinations and D pairings, scrimmage results, interviews and the latest news. You'll want to check us out throughout the day and night.
We also recommend that Islander fans read Newsday (Alan Hahn) and the New York Post (Evan Grossman) each day. In addition, "MSG Sportsdesk" (Deb Kaufman, producer Kevin Meininger and cameraman John Ackerina) and News 12 (Jamie Stuart and Andrew Rappaport) will have reports throughout the week. We appreciate that the powers-that-be at Newsday, the Post, MSG/Fox and News 12 are sending their reporters to Nova Scotia to cover the team.
For now, here are the basics. The nitty-gritty begins when more than 50 players hit the ice at the Mariners Centre on Tuesday morning.
