The Islanders have signed D.C.-based Vanda Pharmaceuticals as their home and away jersey sponsor, becoming the first NHL team to promote a pharmaceutical company on their sweaters since the program began for the 2022-23 season. The team moved quickly to find a new jersey sponsor during the offseason after its previous partner, Solo Stove, moved to end its agreement with the team amid financial issues.

Vanda make antidepressants?
Gross
They make that weird Anime bipolar drug commercial. Not sure if it plays on MSG but its on TNT all the time
A pregame segment of ‘Between Two Pills’ doesn’t quite have the same ring to it
Will they have pills available in the Park prior to games?
Who the fuck is the target market for this?
Not going into politics … Not taking a side…please don’t kill me…. The government is toying with the idea of banning pharmaceutical ads on TV (most of the world already has that) . If that happens, what would happen to this agreement?
The ceo of the company worked on the human genome project
thought we would dodge the ad bullet!!
Hahaha remember last season when we got the ad patch for the first time and everyone was like “well at least it’s Solo Stove which actually fits in, looks ok, and is relatively inoffensive”? They couldn’t even let us have that. Can’t wait for 2030 where we’ll be sponsored by the casino in Willets Point.
The Solo Stove patch was orange so it blended it with the jersey. This being green and black is atrocious.
RIP the Snoop Dogg Solo Stove commercial every other commercial break
