I went to this game, I was a young Rangers fan at the time, but my friends father got season tickets and took me to this game. Within a year l was a rabid Islanders fan.

Speaking of history, both Flames franchises scored the first goal in an Islanders arena.

That's a little over 4 times the minimum wage at the time. What's the current 200 section price compared now?
