barclays sight lines are horrible, as it was not built for hockey. I'm assuming the nhl and the barclays center will try to fix some of the poor sight lines. As for the present nassau coliseum, I hear that they will knock it down and build one that supports a minor league hockey team with btwn 10000-12000 seats, as well as develop the area with retail, restaurants, also heard of a minor league baseball team going near there but i doubt that happens. The builder is the same builder who built the barclays center, and supposidly the plan is to have the islanders play up to 6 games a year at the renovated "colisuem". Once the novelty of barclays wears off, I think the fan base will start to decline, as a large percentage of islander fans live in nassau and suffolk and dont want to go to brooklyn (esp the ones way out east). The nets will prob survive there as its more of a basketbore area, but hockey, i have my doubts.
