A look around the web at the most recent New York Islanders news. Make Eyes On Isles your go to website for all things Islanders.

This summer the New York Islanders changed ownership. We learned that Jon Ledecky’s niece was a very talented swimmer. Well, last night Katie Ledecky won a gold medal while breaking the World Record for the 400 meter freestyle.

It’s an awesome accomplishment for Katie and our country. A video surfaced of her uncle Jon, our owner, going nuts for his niece when she won, pretty cool stuff.

Once again good for Katie, huge accomplishment and it’s also cool to see how the family members react to see that. It has to be such a proud moment. The only thing that could’ve made this better is If Katie did a “Yes! Yes! Yes!” chant after winning gold.
