Always more tickets to the final as fans of losing teams sell
without Yale tickets should not be a problem in Bridgeport

Re: UML 2011-2012 Thread: Part II

I'm planning on going to all the Bridgeport games myself, but have some friends that can only make it to the Saturday game (hopefully we get that far!). Does anyone know if you can buy games individually and how that might work?

IF Lowell loses on Friday night, you're welcome to my two tickets for Saturday.

Thanks in advance!

Wicked pumped for the tournament. I remember watching it on TV the last time they were there. Can't believe I was only 10 at the time! Like Norm said, it's been much too long.

I believe single day tickets went on sale today through ticketmaster.

NHL.com article also fails to mention that Scott Wilson (who is a prospect of the Penguins) was the Hockey East ROTY.

Acceptable oversight in my opinion considering it should have gone to Gaudreau.

Except it shouldn't have. And didn't.

Based on conference stats at the end of the RS, fine give the award to Wilson. I don't have a problem with that. But I think it's clear to everyone in Hockey East (especially after his performance in the HE tourney) who the best rookie really is. That doesn't even take away from Wilson. He had a great year and has a very bright future.

Pretty much hitting the nail on the head here with Miami. What scares me about UML is the solid PP. It seems like we either play penalty-free hockey or we take 10+

That's the other thing... I know it's the playoffs but physical teams tend to take penalties... If you fight through a player when you are proceeding up ice you are going to generate calls... Even if it ends up 4x4... We've got fast and slippery guys... Puck control is great but how about you make the guy catch you?

That only works if you continue to try and fight through those plays ... which Lowell didn't do against PC.

Apparently there are 2-3 bars within the arena itself. its unclear if any will be able to serve alcohol during the games or if they will be open early.

Somebody with a bit more free time might want to give them a call.

edit: monty... agreed.

Exactly. Like I said on the last page, we tried to pass our way through instead of skate our way through.

"What I found very frustrating in that series is that we didn't take advantage of our speed and squirminess by skating the puck out of our own end instead of passing it out. Too often we passed the puck before we got to our blue line even though we weren't being challenged. Providence hung back between center ice and their blue line, waited for us to pass then flew to the puck and creamed the Riverhawk the pass was intended for. Maybe Norm should think back to our 9 goal weekend in Maine (who has very big physical defensemen eh?) and use that game plan for Miami."

Does anyone know what section/rows the Lowell fans will be in?
