The New York Islanders took a moment Friday to acknowledge a popular former player.

Kyle Okposo, who signed with the Buffalo Sabres as a free agent this past summer, was honored with a video tribute and a long ovation from the Barclays Center crowd during a break in action.

Okposo appeared in 556 regular-season games for the Islanders after being drafted seventh overall in 2006
