Dan and Kevin Schultz from VintageIceHockey.com take a look at some Islanders minor league affiliates of the past and the surprising players who skated for them. From the notable New Haven Nighthawks of the early 70's, to their long association with Fort Worth, Texas, to a championship club in Indianapolis to short stops in unique places like Kentucky, Utah and Lowell, Mass, the Islanders have had minor league teams of all stripes in a lot of places. Some players on those teams went on to be Stanley Cup champions and legends, while some famous names never became Islanders at all. The last 20-plus years have seen Long Island forge a long relationship with Bridgeport, CT and so we finish the episode with a round of Sound Tigers trivia. Thanks again to Kevin for coming on and congrats on the growth of Vintage Ice Hockey over the years. No, this isn't an hour long commercial. But if you are moved to learn more about these teams or wear some of their colors, check out the site.
