Mark your calendars for January 28 as the New York Islanders and New York Rangers legends prepare to showcase their skills once again at the Northwell Health Ice Center in East Meadow, New York, for the eagerly anticipated third annual Alumni Classic.
This exciting event not only promises a trip down memory lane but also serves a noble cause � all proceeds will be directed to the Northwell Health Foundation.
The star-studded lineup of Islanders alumni includes iconic figures such as Shawn Bates, who served as coach from 2001 to 2008, the formidable Eric Cairns (No. 33, 1998-2004), and the ever-dynamic Steve Webb (No. 20, 1996-2004).
Notable names like Benoit Hogue, Radek Martinek, and Marty Reasoner will also grace the ice, creating an unforgettable spectacle for fans.
To enhance the fan experience, various seating options are available, starting at a reasonable $35 for general admission.
Additionally, special packages offer exclusive opportunities, such as VIP meet-and-greets with participating alumni, group on-ice photos, and even chances to coach and play alongside these hockey legends.
Another enticing option allows fans to meet a player, receiving a jersey right off their back � a limited and prized opportunity.
This marks the third consecutive year that the New York rivals will come together for this alumni faceoff, a tradition that began in 2022.
The game is perfectly aligned with the Islanders' annual Alumni Weekend, adding an extra layer of excitement as the team hosts the Florida Panthers at the UBS Arena on January 27.
It's not just a hockey game; it's a celebration of the sport's rich history and the enduring spirit of these legendary players.
Join us for an unforgettable evening filled with nostalgia, camaraderie, and the thrill of witnessing your favorite hockey heroes in action!
