Whether from the couch or at the arena, it’s common practice for hockey fans to don their favorite player’s jersey and cheer their team to victory. But how often do the stars align for fans to truly meet their heroes up close and personal?

The barrier between player and fan is being broken each day at Lifestyle Authentic, a NHL memorabilia and event promoter that offers an array of meet-and-greet and autograph signing events, personally worn jerseys and authentic collectibles. In addition to being the official memorabilia partner of the New York Islanders, Lifestyle Authentic associates with several other NHL teams to provide tickets, bundle packages and other memorabilia to fans.

For New York Islanders fans, no greater company exists for getting the most out of Brooklyn’s newest sports attraction. Lifestyle Authentic advertises a “Player Shops” tab on its homepage populated by several Islander players, including captain John Tavares and fan favorite Matt Martin. While signed Tavares memorabilia is a major highlight on the homepage, Martin will participate in several upcoming meet-and-greet signings across New York through the end of the 2015-16 NHL season.

None will be bigger than this Saturday’s event at Dave and Buster’s in Westbury, Long Island. Being dubbed “Meet the 4th Line”, fans will havethe opportunity to chat with Martin and his fellow bash brothers Cal Clutterbuck and Casey Cizikas, who make up one of the hardest-hitting lines in the NHL. One ticket entitles one person to attend the 30-minute VIP pre-party with the trio of players, which will include buffet style lunch, professional photo-op with all three players and one signed photo. Last but certainly not least, a Dave and Busters game card will also be included in the $100 price tag.

Martin will also be the main attraction for Lifestyle Authentic’s “Islander Night Out” at a home game at Barclays Center this season. For $649.99 fans will receive two tickets to an upcoming game in Brooklyn and participate in a meet-and-greet with Martin after the final whistle. The experience bundle will come equipped with a Matt Martin jersey, two photos for Matt to sign and a photo op after the game.

The Islanders are just one of sixteen teams Lifestyle Authentic partners with during the course of the NHL season. From the defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks to the Pacific-leading Los Angeles Kings, hockey’s biggest teams have joined hands with Lifestyle Authentic to provide fans with unforgettable experiences. Just ask Nashville Predators star Ryan Johansen, whose VIP pre-party will include a beer and wine assortment fused with smokehouse dinner buffet.

The solution is clear for those looking to elevate their hockey fandom to the next level. Whether picking up a signed puck or picking the brain of a favorite player, Lifestyle Authentic should be on every hockey fan’s radar during the NHL season.
