from Slap Shot at the NYT,
Anaheim Ducks General Manager Brian Burke said he asked the Islanders for a credential for Pat LaFontaine, a former Islander and Hall of Famer, so he could sit with him on Tuesday night when the Ducks played at Nassau Coliseum. But the Islanders would not grant him one. Burke said he reiterated his request as a personal favor and was again refused.

The Islanders agreed to give me a spot in the blogbox a month or two before a game in late October.
When I tried to contact their media relations rep or their VP of communications to confirm, before taking a subway and a train out there from Manhattan, neither responded.

They probably couldn’t fit Patty in because of the blog box.
