On the Road with the NYIBC - for the 2025-26 Season
THE NHL SCHEDULE IS DUE TO COME OUT AROUND THE 15 OF JULY. AS SOON AS IT COMES OUT - I WILL PUT OUT A POTENTIAL LIST OF PLACES. WE WILL HAVE A FORM FOR YOU TO DECIDE WHERE YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO. I WILL LOOK AT A MAJORITY OF PLACES, AND THEN START THE PROCESS.
IF IT IS A LOCAL LOCATION, WE WILL EITHER BUS OR AMTRAK. IF IT A PLACE TO FLY, WE WILL GET THE TICKETS AND OBTAIN A HOTEL. YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING THE HOTEL AS WELL AS YOUR AIRFARE/CAR.
The Club went on two trips this season - the day after Thanksgiving - we did an Amtrak trip to DC to see our Isles get a point but lose in Overtime to the Washington Capitals. It was the first time that we ventured via train - and it was a good time and easy trip.
In January/February - a small group of members did both Tampa and Sunrise (Panthers) on back to back nights. Unfortunately - the Isles lost both games on this trip.
Once the schedule comes out - we will have a good idea on where we intend to go for the season. We have taken bus trips in the past, but this past season - we flew to see our games. The Club will help get the hotel and the tickets. It is your responsibility to get there.
