UBS Arena was hosting Islanders fans for the return of their draft party last week. Fans packed inside to watch and celebrate the team making the first overall selection, something that the team lucked into when they won the draft lottery with just 3.5% odds. The party showcased a new beginning for the Islanders, as fans in attendance hope that the players selected by the team that night, including potential star defenseman Matthew Schaefer, will help build a winner in the coming years.
