The Islanders held a tribute to slain NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller on Friday night at UBS Arena just two days after Diller’s shooter was stunningly acquitted on a charge of first-degree murder. The killer, 36-year-old Guy Rivera, was convicted on lesser charges, including aggravated manslaughter and attempted murder of Diller’s partner and weapons charges. “Today the Islanders family remembers the life and legacy of NYPD detective Jonathan Diller,” public address announcer Alex Anthony said at the under-10 TV timeout of the first period.
