Islanders Iceworks is a multipurpose ice hockey facility in Syosset, New York, containing two regulation-sized NHL rinks. It is owned and operated by the New York Islanders, an NHL team, and is used primarily as a practice facility. Additionally the arena is available to the local community for a variety of reasons, including 'learning to skate', house leagues and summer camps.[1]
After founding both a men's and women's ice hockey team, Long Island University reached an agreement with the New York Islanders to use the Iceworks as their primary home rink.[2]
The Islander's former owner Charles Wang purchased the Iceworks out of bankruptcy in 2015 for $8 million.[3]
