Budget Cuts Take Aim at Islanders Point Blank

The beleaguered club finally did something right last season: Recognizing that coverage of the other New York-area sports teams dwarfed coverage of the Islanders, the team launched Islanders Point Blank, a news blog that it financed but did not host on the official team site.
