Well hello there!! For those of you who don’t know where they ended up, let me introduce myself. My name is Tom Liodice, I’m 23 years old, I currently reside in Garden City, NY, and I have been a HUGE New York Islanders fan since 1991. I am also the Bridgeport Sound Tigers reporter for NYSportsDay.com.

The Bridgeport Sound Tigers are the top minor-league (AHL) affiliate of the New York Islanders. I got my first introduction to the Bridgeport Sound Tigers early 2003 when I started writing for HockeysFuture.com. There I covered the Isles top prospects and reported on their progress, and met NYSportsDay’s Joe McDonald during the infamous lockout year. I stayed with HockeysFuture for about a year or so, then left to concentrate on my schoolwork. After graduation, I noticed that the Bridgeport Sound Tigers weren’t getting much coverage, something I feel is sorely needed. I contacted Joe, and the rest was history…

Throughout the hockey year, I will do my best to give you the latest from the Arena at Harbor Yard and deliver you the latest Bridgeport Sound Tigers news and scores. Since right now I only cover Sound Tigers home games, I’ll give you up-to-the date line combinations and thoughts IMMEDIATELY after every home game. I’ll also be updating you with the latest playoff race for the Sound Tigers, of which they hold a 5 point lead over the Albany River Rats for the final playoff spot in the East Division.

Feel free to leave your comments, I’m excited to hear from you and to get started! Don’t forget to pass the word around!!
