      Yes, on 4 Jan. As I recall it wasn't the best of driving conditions, but I made the trip. BU was missing 2 of the 3 second line players and had makeshift second and forth lines. BU dominated the games, but Bowdoin's goalie, Darren Hersh, kept it close for 2 periods.

            Good point. We are 21-1-1 vs. AIC, and I was at the loss and tie (and a couple of wins).

                  Re: Places I've Seen a College Hockey Game

                  Not an impressive list but I'll play:

                  The Ralph(best one obviously ) Grand Forks, ND
                  The Old Ralph- Grand Forks, ND
                  Sanford Center- Bemidji, MN (small and quiet)
                  Amsoil Arena- Duluth, MN (2nd favorite rink, great sight lines)
                  National Hockey Center- St. Cloud, MN (concrete palace, decent student section, pretty sterile arena)
                  Marriuci Arena- Minneapolis, MN (Only trip was the last UND/UMN match-up as WCHA foes, good sight lines unless you're in SRO which I was, big open bowl)
                  Century Link Center- Omaha, NE (wayyy too big for 99% of college hockey teams so always feels empty)
                  Magness Arena- Denver, CO (nothing special, lack of devoted fans)
                  World Arena- Colorado Springs, CO (worst student section, overall decent atmosphere)
                  TD Ameritrade Park- Omaha, NE (Where the CWS is played, Outdoor hockey game, great time and fun town)

                  Postseason venues:
                  Xcel Energy Center (Great arena, 4 WCHA Final Five's & 2011 Frozen Four)
                  Target Center (Terrible boards, terrible ice, hopefully renovations help this)
                  Scheels Arena (2014 West Regionals, cool little rink)

                  Rinks I would like to visit:
                  Kohl Center
                  New Omaha rink
                  Goggin Arena
                  Lawson Arena
                  Yost
                  Maine Arena(not sure of the name)
                  BU's rink
                  Conte

                    Looking at my list, it's not really all that long. I should remedy that.

                    National Hockey Center; SCSU
                    Mariucci Arena; U of MN
                    TCF Bank Stadium; U of MN
                    Verizon Wireless Center; Mankato State
                    St. Paul Civic Center; WCHA Final Five - last one before they tore down the old building. Clear boards!
                    Xcel Energy Center; WCHA Final Five and various other non-conference games
                    Magness; DU
                    Bradley Center, Milwaukee; 2006 Frozen Four
                    ScottTrade Center, St. Louis; 2007 Frozen Four

                    I've also played in and watched a whole host of non-collegiate games in various DIII buildings around the Twin Cities.
                    "The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984

                    "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

                        If you're ever in Boston to visit Agannis or Conte, you've got to check out Matthews Arena (Northeastern U.), formerly Boston Arena, the oldest indoor hockey arena in North America still being used for hockey. It's a few miles away from BC and BU. Add it to your list. You'll be glad you did.
