Like many sports affiliated organizations as of late, the Islanders have gone completely digital with their game programs. It's a cost cutting move that has the old school fans flustered. For those who can actually use a computer, it's unique. You can turn the pages of the digital program and it's laid out just like the old programs. If you happen to go to the Coliseum anytime soon, there are still a few of the last printed programs laying around. It's the May/June edition that has photo features from the 2008-09 season. Normally they are $5, but these are free. I grabbed a few the other night - could be a collectors item when the team is playing in Kansas.
The digitalization is not a bad move - it makes the team look smart for a change. Now if they can just win a game.
Terrible move. Continue alienating fans, Wang! The program always seemed like a nice memento of attending a game. Who's saving a printout of the program from their kid's first hockey game?
