The New York Islanders, also commonly referred to as the Isles, are one of two National Hockey League teams located within the Big Apple. Founded in 1972 the NY Islanders are currently based in Unionville and play all of their home games at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Since their inception into the NHL, the New York Islanders have forged a bitter rivalry with the Big Apples other hockey team, the New York Rangers, creating an endless line of die-hard fans and true team loyalists! If youre planning on visiting Long Island during your upcoming NYC vacation, AAMCAR Discount Car Rentals encourages you to check out one of the Islanders games, especially one versus the Rangers! The Islanders are currently revving up for a new season at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum after a year of off ice turmoil (thanks to last seasons league strike). Fans of all ages are bound to enjoy an afternoon at the rink so dont miss your chance to see the Isles back in action reserve your seats today!
The Islanders Inception
Turmoil marked the beginning of the Islanders career causing league problems, money woes and territorial disputes between the team and the National Hockey League. Instead of playing in the newly created World Hockey Association like they were suppose to, the NHL, which feared the idea of competition in the nations largest metropolis, hastily awarded the Islanders with an expansion team franchise. The Islanders were then faced with even more trouble this time in the form of hostile neighbors. If the Islanders wished to call New York home they would be forced to pay a territorially fee to the long established Rangers worth close to $4 million! Pay-cuts ensued, causing many of the newly acquired players to jump ship and head to the WHA. This mix of uncertainty and hostility caused the Islanders to post the worst record in NHL history winning just 12 games, tying 6 and losing a staggering 60.
The Turn Around
Although the future looked dim for the Islanders, the team refused to give up. In 1973 the Islanders hired Al Arbour as their new head coach, while also acquiring future superstar forward Bob Nystrom and defenseman Denis Potvin. It wasnt long before the team made a complete turn around, making the playoffs in 1975 and winning the coveted Stanley Cup Championship in 1980. Over time the Islanders have become one of the NHLs most successful expansion teams winning six Division Championships, ten Conference Finals, and four Stanley Cups. With over 20 playoff appearances under their belt, the New York Islanders are proud to provide spectators with edge-of-your seat action each and every game, so dont miss your chance to see the boys of winter back in action! Remember to reserve your game day tickets today!
Current Superstars and Retired Idols
This years New York Islanders roster is looking pretty solid thanks to a handful of new recruits and the return of countless local heroes. Captain Alexei Yashin, who was out due to injury most of the 2003-2004 season, is back in tiptop condition, along with defensemen Alexei Zhitnik and Allan Rourke. Returning forwards Mike York and Aaron Ashman add to the bulk of the Islanders offensive line, while goalies Rick DiPietro and Garth Snow are looking as agile as ever. If youre planning on catching an Islanders game during your upcoming AAMCAR New York Discount Car Rental vacation, remember to be on the lookout for past players as you take your seat. Numerous members of the Islanders Alumni can often be seen in the stands at team home games so dont forget to pack an autograph book in the back of your New York discount car rental.

The last of the winter months seem to draw out like no other. After the holidays are over, the city seems bleak with snow and ice everywhere. However; a short road trip to some of the most amazing ski resorts on the Eastern Seaboard can be nourishing to the soul. Ski season is almost over but there are many beautiful slopes all over the east coast to take advantage of. Last weekend to celebrate the long weekend, a bunch of friends decided to go to Vermont. We decided to go to Stowe ski resort. I was tasked with finding an SUV that would fit all five of us and keep us within the budget. My first stop was AAMCAR, the company I use right next to my house on the Upper West side. I checked their web-site and found exactly what we needed but the price was a little higher. Some of the rental locations in LGA airport were offering the same type of vehicle for $50 cheaper. I called AAMCAR and spoke with the agent who said that normally they would match the rate but they were almost sold out of the vehicles so the best he could do was meet me half-way. Now, I must digress here. Anyone who lives in Manhattan knows the travails of going to any of the area airports. It is expensive, time consuming and generally not worth it unless you are actually going to the airport to leave NY. So it was a no brainer for me. I made the deal and we had a wonderful time in Vermont. The resort was amazing, the route was scenic and safe because of the all wheel drive vehicle. I was especially happy when we got back that night and I was able to drop off the vehicle and be in bed all by midnight. Definitely worth the trip and it was a very smart decision to do some comparison shopping before deciding on AAMCAR!

Washington Heights, one of the most diverse neighborhoods of NYC was virtually unknown to tourists until recently. Now that MTV has a show called Washington Heights, interest in the neighborhood has surged. I have been living in NYC for over 10 years and have never really gone that far Uptown. So last weekend, on a bright and sunny Saturday we decided to tour “The Heights”. We decided to rent a small car but were unable to find acceptable rates. We searched online for keywords such as discount Washington Heights car rental, cheap car rental and found a branch of AAMCAR called Uptown car rental right in the middle of the Heights neighborhood. After checking for deals AAMCAR has posted online, I was able to rent a car for the day for $90! My friend and I decided that spending $45 each made sense because we could do things at our own pace without having to worry about train and bus schedules. The garage was open for 24-hour drop offs which made things a lot easier as I didn’t want to be saddled with the car overnight.
We started our day by going to America’s only museum dedicated exclusively to medieval art, The Cloisters. It is located in the beautiful setting of Fort Tyron Park which was gorgeous with some snow left over from the previous weekend. After hiking through the park, we were both famished. Next stop was Patacon Pisao for some yummy Venezuelan food. The huge portions of delicious food left us well satisfied. My friend then wanted to go shopping. We had heard about the plethora of vendors selling everything from children’s clothing to refrigerators in La Plaza de Las Americas so we decided to head there. It was sold as described. An array of businesses selling so many different things! It truly boggled our minds.
We decided to drop off the car after this and then go out. When I returned the vehicle, the transaction was smooth and there were no additional charges. There was a Shell gas station right next door so I was able to fill up the gas without any issues. Overall, both of us were glad that we decided to rent a car to explore the Heights because the park is not very close to the subway station and we didn’t want to waste time waiting for buses or spending ridiculous amounts of money on the gypsy cabs.
