    With demand down around college hockey and tickets avaiable in Minnesota for the frozen four and moderate sales in Manchester for the regoinal interest is down.
    the finals promise to be even a tougher sell
    re: Manchester...I wouldn't worry about the initial sales right now. As we inch closer, I suspect UNH (and as of right now it would be BC there as well) and BC fans to buy lots of tickets.

      Ted Donato is on the hot seat over in Cambridge.. I expect Harvard to give NU all they can handle (and more) tonight.
      GO NU HOCKEY
      Always bullish on the future.
      We don't always win Hockey East or the Beanpot (#trilogy).. but when we do.. we are the Champions

        Meh. He's certainly on the hot seat, but that is one dreadful team. I still like NU 3-1.

          They held Yale to 1 goal Friday (definitely upped their gm against their big rival)..

          ..i don't know if they are dreadful or.. just not buying into Donato's style anymore.

            Agreed if BC & UNH make it, it'll be a near sellout.

              This will be the first Beanpot in a while I won't be going to. It's not because I'm busy, I just feel like watching on TV for some reason and have no desire to go and deal with Boston rush hour on a Monday.

                  Not to derail the beanpot thread, but Manchester always has a bump in sales right after the Maine game, and they also always have a run of sales in early March. Then, after the field is announced, they'll sell 200-300 tickets a day.

                  The casual fan doesn't often know the rule that because UNH is the host school, they automatically got to Manchester.

                  Oh, the "zzzzzz" post wasn't bored about the beanpot - I enjoy watching -- but this thread is so TAME this year!
                  I haven't been on here in a year...
                  Now I'm a dad. Holy crap.

                    It's going to get more and more tame until the BU/BC streak is snapped.

                      Did everyone know that Northeastern was the Beanpot Team of the 80's... winning 4 of the Beanpot championships in that decade?

                        Shut up. I hate you. That's just like USCHO saying we will win it. You're just bringing up the past. You smell. We all hate you.

You simply can't appreciate a title as much if you don't suffer through a lot of failure beforehand. To put it another way, if MNS ever gets any, he'll appreciate the experience on a far deeper level than the rest of us did when it was our first time, simply because he's gone far longer and failed far more than we ever did.

                            NU has to be considered the heavy favorite to win it this year. I may have to put some money on them in a "NU vs. the Field" parlay on this tournament.

                                Dude, that's ludicrous. No chance Harvard scores a goal. As I understand it, NU is already up 3-0 oin Harvard and the game hasn't even started yet. NU is THAT good.
