“Michael has done an incredible job running the front office for the
Islanders,” Islanders Owner Charles Wang said. “I have worked closely
with Michael for almost 33 years and know he will do a great job with
the Bridgeport operation. Michael was involved with the purchase of the
Sound Tigers and, through his work with the Islanders, is quite
familiar with the operation and the employees in Bridgeport. I look
forward to a vibrant and active Arena.” NYIFC Comments:
This was reported back when Howard Saffan left.
Mr Picker will also run arena for Mr Wang under lease until 2021.
