Re: UAA: Patiently Waiting For Next Season, Every Season...

So the Aces didn't make the playoffs either. I blame the new scoreboard...

The one that costs $3,000.00 each game and is run by 7 monkeys who can't count?
Is that the one you refer to?

The Old Sully is clearly not pleased, all this new age mumbo jumbo.

Sullivan Arena is the worst venue in all of sports. Ugliest arena outside and inside and it isn't even close and the sight lines are horrible. New scoreboard and new seats this year…lipstick on a pig.

You've not been to some of the Atlantic Hockey schools. Sacred Heart plays in an absolute dump.

Sacred Heart plays in the worst arena in all of D1 hockey. However there have been alot of upgrades to rinks in Atlantic Hockey. RIT and Canisius have brand new rinks. Mercyhurst, Air Force, Army play in solid rinks. The worst ones are SHU, Bentley and AIC by far.

Brown has a horse that race. Meehan was pretty dumpy IMO.

The Milford Ice Pavilion is a civic facility with room for maybe 500 fans. There are three heated rooms in the building: the office, the locker rooms that SHU uses, and this one random room at the home-attack-twice end of the rink. We broadcast from there because there was nowhere else with power and telephone. Our players did their stretching there just to stay warm enough to do it. They had to jostle with 40-year-old hacks after our game who were looking to play in their senior open league.

Lol, that's awesome. I'd bet UAA's on campus practice rink is better...

The Farg is supposed to get a makeover this summer.
The existing locker room is small but nice by 1990 standards.
Supposedly getting redone with the rest of the building.

To make a statement like that, you must have visited all of the DI facilities, right? Including UAA. So enlighten us, which venues have you stepped foot in? Obviously not Ferris State or Alaska Fairbanks.

Re: UAA: Patiently Waiting For Next Season, Every Season...

new seats this year…lipstick on a pig.

The new seats are in and are on display @ the Sully. Now that the Aces are golfing, maybe the arena will start ripping out the "ugly yellows" SOON!

The ones that will replace the mustard-yellow seats are a dark green and are padded.

They also have some new grayish colored seats that I think will replace the orange ones. The grey seats aren't padded like the dark green ones. ... Not sure if the upper levels (red seats) will have to wait, but at least the yellow & orange ones are on their way out!

I wonder who would want those ucky old seats? They're pretty hammered. Dumpster? Recycle bin?

I took a photo of the new ones, but I still don't know how to add a photo on here..

Ucky? Belongs in a dumpster? Hammered? That's got "Fairbanks" written all over it.

Lighten up a bit eh? No need to be so defensive...

Maybe the Carlson could put them in their balcony. It sure would be an upgrade from those back breaking bleachers they have now. I heard the padded seats will be from the blue line to the blue line, the gray seats in the other sections. And no, the balcony seats are not being replaced.

New seats, new glass, new scoreboard, new paint ... can't wait.

When were you able to see the new seats?

Bentley one of the worst? I beg to differ. Admittedly no one will mistake the John A. Ryan Arena for a "state of the art" facility, but what it lacks in glitz it makes up for it in other areas. Free parking. Inexpensive admission. Decent concession stand. Better sight lines than some of the new arenas. More leg room than the Agganis Arena. No propaganda on the boards or on some flashing message bored telling me what type of health insurance to buy. No stupid "Kiss Cam" or Sumo wrestler relays. All they do at the John A. Ryan is PLAY HOCKEY!!!
