The Islanders got a concession.
The team announced early Friday night that if the first-place team makes the playoffs, the home games of the first round would be played at the Coliseum, their old home on Long Island where they are set to have 21 regular-season games this season. If the team makes it further into the postseason, the rest of the home games will be played at Barclays Center, the ill-fitting Brooklyn home for the team since for the previous three season before this one.
As The Post reported a few weeks ago, the decision would have ultimately come down to Gary Bettman making the call, with the commissioner holding the final say.
