from Brian Compton of NHL.com,
With less than a month to go before their first preseason game, one word aptly describes the New York Islanders as they head into the 2009-10 campaign.
Hope.
With owner Charles Wang’s Lighthouse Project gaining momentum in recent months, combined with the selection of John Tavares with the No. 1 pick at the 2009 Entry Draft, things could finally be looking up for the former dynasty that last won a playoff series in 1993.
