Isn’t it funny that one would think Bentley would consider hosting BU their marquee event on their schedule yet their AHA conference games cost more to buy a ticket for? Do they really think that Niagara-Bentley is a hotter ticket?

It could be two of those three if BU dresses seven D. They all played well in the scrimmage. M. Celebrini skated with Wilmer and Q. Hutson. Zabaneh centered Tuch and Peterson. Greene skated with Kaplan and primarily Harvey.

Just purchased tickets for Saturday evening. Not 100% sure I can go,but would like to go to see the new arena - and one I'm not likely to go to very often - and it seems like this game will sell out. Plus it is probably easier for me to get to Bentley than to BU. If I can't end up going, i'll offer them up here. Looking forward to the start of this season.

Bentley typically plays better against HEA teams than against AHA teams. Seats for game may be sold out, but should be plenty of seats available if you can get a SRO ticket as Bentley is on Fall Break, so I suspect that BU fans will way outnumber Bentley fans. I prefer to stand along the counters on the mezzanine anyway. Nice modern small arena with very good sight lines, worthy of HEA membership, in my opinion. Team will be rebuilding with loss of their two best frosh last offseason to the portal and now a new coach.

Glad to see it is sold out (and glad that I bought a ticket while seats were still available). Haven't been to Bentley since i used to pick up a high school classmate who had gone there, to bring him to BU to have a good time (1989). In fact, now that I think of it, I took him to the '89 Beanpot Championship. Given our epic comeback against NU in the semis (Kelfer with 6 minutes left, Mike Sullivan shorthanded in the last couple minutes to tie it up, Chris Lappin in OT), I was explaining how crazy the games are, and sure enough, BU storms back from being down 3-0 to Ted Donato and Harvard to take a 4-3 lead (we lost 9-6...bummer). Anyway, looking forward to checking out a new rink while seeing the Mack Attack in action...

Albie was a very good recruiter, but it was clear early on that he was not a good HC. Took 4 years to make a change. Glad he has caught on at ASU as he is a good guy. But it is clear after just one season that Jay has what it takes. The future is bright, but there is still so much more parity that there was in the 90s.
What game are you watching? Bentley has not been on the PP, but BU only got 2 SOG on their 5-minute PP.

Bentley was on a 5 min PP ages ago. BU had possession most of it...regardless of SOG during it. Bentley didn't really threaten on that one until the end.
