      I don't necessarily think it was a slam. It's part of the DNA of BU people to constantly try to compare themselves to BC. In the few instances they think they might trump BC, it's got to be mentioned. Simple science, really...

      Anyway, with BC using scanned tickets, reporting a sellout for last night, and having a reported attendance of less than Conte's capacity... would the logical conclusion not be that it WAS soldout, there were noshows, and BC reported actually tickets scanned?

      I've never seen any reputable source suggest that BC reports tickets sold rather than tickets scanned since moving to the new scanning devices across all revenue sports.

Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

        They sent out an email yesterday that 50 tickets had become available.

          hmmmm, dont believe i got that or if it came, i didnt read it but after reading and agreeing with Carmine's post (maybe we assumed that they counted tickets sold) the fact that they sent out that email suggests it was sold out and the explanation for the empty seats in the far corners suggests they count actual fannies in the seats. I dunno, i am really confused at this point though. In any event, Go Eagles tonight, another huge one

            Without time (or energy lol) to make a lengthly analysis right now, if that is what happened last night, it is a change in practice. Look at the BC attendance figures the past few years. There were numerous times during this span where there is a "perfect" 7,884 posted. Don't tell me every single person showed up. Even if you say that they are counting media, SRO, etc., no way will that perfect figure be obtained so many times. Whereas the practice at Agganis in past years (since they have not been selling out this year) is to say during the games, "Tonight's attendance, 5803, a sellout." A tally far less than the 6224 capacity.

            I have no problem with an attendance sold figure, I just wish there was an uniform way in announcing them. I've already given enough time to something as mundane as attendance, its just worth mentioning since some around here brag about attendance like they were comparing the size of their *ahem*.

              Missed Jerry's 900th last night (bummer) but looking forward to tonight at Lawler. Tough place to scratch out a win but I think the Eagles have turned the corner. Love seeing games at the Mack but not crazy about the new assigned seating, although it's necessary given the sellouts. Preferred a few years ago when you could sit anywhere and follow the Eagles to their attacking zone each period.
              I hope a lot of Eagle fans bought tix from the BC box office to fill our section.
              Go Eagles!

                Sorry Gentry, but there's not a lot of hardcore logic based on this position. It's basically pure conjecture.

                  Now that their season's over, expect to see that sort of drivel a lot on here.

                      Game tied after 2 periods, 1-1.

                      P*** poor effort in the 2nd period by BC. They need to get it together in the 3rd period and come out with intensity. Tying goal when Hayes turned the puck over. Looking for them to generate offense in the 3rd period.

                          Well, well, well...look who very quietly has surged to the top of the HE standings. Of the five teams competing for home ice, BC is the only team to collect four points this weekend. Can't ask for much more than that.

                          My father either listened/watched online and he is not happy with Dennehy/the MC players. Anybody go...what gives? I don't see any outrageous PIM totals or BS at the end of the game...anything happen?

                            And easily #2 in the country. I would wager that FSU & BC split all the first-place votes between them. No others need apply.

                              I was there. Bigos is a j.a.c.k.a.s.s. Mack was just as hackish as they always are.

                              Michigan would disagree... To me there's finally been some separation at the top, between BC, FSU, and Mich.
