When the New York Islanders take the ice to face-off against the San Jose Sharks on Saturday night, the team will be holding a very special Halloween basket auction. The event will cap-off a month long fight the team has held in the fight against cancer.

All of the Islanders players created their own baskets, filling each one with Halloween goodies along with autographed items. These unique baskets will be raffled off on Saturday at Gate 14 on the concourse.

Each individual ticket will be $5 or fans can purchase five tickets for $20, all proceeds from the auction will benefit the ‘Islanders Fight Cancer’ Campaign.
