According to a recent newsday article the Islanders and SMG have come to a sublease that would give SMG a lesser role with the management of the Coliseum. Now it needs to be seen weather or not Mangano is ok with it.
I don’t know how this will affect the Lighthouse however I think this is good for the team because I think this means SMG is out of the way which means Wang will be making more money!
Post your thoughts in comments!
An excellent entry from Nick explaining everything:

Tonight from the Old barn in Hempstead the Islanders won a game for a change on home ice. It was before a modest crowd of approx. 10,000. Here are some of my notes:
Good game by Roli
Nice seeing JT get back on the scoresheet
Another good game by Comeau and nice seeing him get rewarded with the empty net goal! Great set up by him on JTs goal
Good Defense
Good shot by Hunter on the first goal
Next Game: Saturday 12/26 @ MSG Vs the Rag-holes

Tonight from the old barn in Hempstead Phil Kessel and the Toronto Maple-Leafs will be paying John Tavares and our New York Islanders a visit. Expect the same lineup as it has been recently with Roloson in net. Jackman is going to return after Christmas. I will be surprised if he hasn’t returned by Sunday VS Philly. Here is Torontos probable line-up courtesy of Chris Botta from pointblank:
Ponikarovsky - Stajan - Kessel
Blake - Grabovski - Hagman
Stempniak - Primeau - Kulemin
Wallin - Meyers - Orr
Komisarek - Kaberle
Beauchemin - White
Schenn - Finger (Exelby)
Gustavsson
Toskala
I think if we can shut down Kessel we have a good shot of winning tonight. But this is the Islanders were talking about here.
